Thanks for the ping!
“Rebel Private, Front and Rear” by William A. Fletcher of the Texas Brigade of the Army of Northern Virginia. The memoirs of an ordinary Confederate Soldier who fought in most of the major battles in Virginia and at Gettysburg. He was wounded three times and escaped from a moving Yankee Prison train. When, due to his injuries, he could no longer serve as an infantryman, he finished his srvice as a Texas Ranger. An outstanding book with first class reviews. Shelby Foote loved it.

Those Texans were hard to beat. I believe it was Lee who asked for more of Hood's Texans because they were hard fighting men.

I haven't read Fletcher's book, but it sure sounds like a great one.
