.....have read 3 of the 4 books on Nathan. He for sure would have kicked some butt in these hearings.

Imagine him walking in the hearing room in his full CSA General’s uniform with sword at his side and going to chair the hearing. With his warrior reputation/background (29 hand to hand kills) the room would have cleared in seconds.

He must have been an awesome sight!

I have tried to set down some thoughts about Nathan Bedford Forrest in historical context with relevance to modern conservatism on my About Page if you are interested.
