Mohun; or, The last days of Lee and his paladins

1869. Final memoirs of a staff officer serving in Virginia. A well-known American novelist, often referred to as the Sir Walter Scott of the Southern border, a poet, his writings relate almost entirely to Virginia, and describe the life, manners, and history of the people of that state. His war-books are records of personal observation and opinion. Mohun is a sequel to Surry of Eagle's Nest, a picture of military incidents in the Confederate cavalry, in autobiographical form, purporting to be from the manuscript of Col. Surry.
