Excerpt from A History of the Laurel Brigade: Originally the Ashby Cavalry of the ArmyThis history was written by the late Capt. William N. McDonald,who was ordnance officer of the Laurel Brigade. It was written at the request of Genl. Thomas L. Rosser, its one time commander,who gave to the brigade the name "Laurel" and who by his courage, dash, and skill, in great degree contributed to win the fame which made it worthy to be known by that name.The labor of Captain McDonald in accumulating the data and writing this history, extended through the ten years previous to his lamented death on the 4th of January, 1898. And some idea of the amount and difficulty of the labor undertaken may be gathered from his own words, below quoted, from a circular letter sent to the survivors of the brigade, in his quest for information: "This work was entered upon with the settled purpose of making it an authentic memorial of those who composed the Laurel Brigade, but with little expectation that the story of the achievements of the command would equal its measure of fame. The facts necessary to make up the record are difficult to procure. The official reports rarely give details, and after February 1st, 1864, few if any brigade or regimental reports are to be found. From that time, to the end, there was such a giving and taking of blows, - such a struggle for the means of subsistence, - that little time was left for clerical work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
