See the Table of Contents and Index HERE
James I. Robertson, Jr., Civil War Professor at Virginia Tech, calls The Free State Of Patrick: Patrick County Virginia in the Civil War
a “masterful job.” Thomas D. Perry in over 340 pages tells the story of the men who fought for the South and even a few for the North
in this book on the county he grew up in. The book contains chapters on the 51st Virginia Infantry, 50th Virginia Infantry, George Stoneman’s
Union Raid through the county, J. E. B. Stuart, the homefront in the county during the war, and a chapter of over 150 letters from soldiers
who served from the county. The book contains a roster of over 1,700 men who served on both sides in the war along with Pension and
Disability records. Also included are the Southern Claims Commission records, Robert E. Lee Soldier’s Home in Richmond, and a roster of
Union soldiers from Patrick County. Photos from men who served in the war along with a bibliography and index make this the definitive book
on Patrick County during the War Between the States.
This book sells for $24.99 and is available from Perry’s website
