The South's Finest chronicles one of the best remaining untold stories of the Civil War. The First Missouri Confederate Brigade earned the most distinguished record of any comparable unit. Yet, earlier historians have ignored its accomplishments during some of the most strategically important engagements of the war. Significantly, they had major roles from their first battle at Pea Ridge in early 1862 to their last at Fort Blakely in April 1865.

Excerpt from Memoirs, Historical and Personal: Including the Campaigns of the First Missouri Confederate Brigade The counsels and conduct of faction, even in a civilized state, may sometimes be marked by malignity and ferocity as Vindio tive and relentless, as the spirit with which barbaric chiefs have trampled upon and desolated conquered nations and empires. If, in a land that ought to be great as well as free, such counsels and conduct are proposed, will they not be indignantly spurned by a people whose magnanimity is invoked by their destinies, and by glory and honor? The great controversy of State rights at issue during the struggle it is not proposed to treat as a practical question 3 that must abide the arbitrament of arms; nor am I about to write altogether history, properly so called. My desire is to sketch some memoirs and record some events, whose character Will be at once historical and personal. Their military connection will include the campaigns of the First Missouri (confederate) brigade, of which, I am proud to say, I was a member. These troops were those that followed the fortunes of our gallant old hero, General Sterling Price, to the east side of the Mississippi, and served on that side to the close of the war. The narrative will be faithful to truth; at least, if there be errors, they will not be from intention. My motive in writing is partly to illustrate the life of the soldier. The military memoirs and histories of the day appear to be devoted exclusively to the lives, characters and exploits of distinguished chiefs, and the most important events connected with their career, or calculated to embellish general history. I wish to introduce the reader into the tents and around the camp-fires of the common soldier - to scenes with which I was long familiar; while at the same time we will go with him in the ranks, upon those fields made memorable and glorious by his courage and devotion.
