Sobre este artículo
Grffin, GA: J. F. Thompson, 1911. First edition. Octavo. 32 pp, Illustrated from photographs. Publisher's printed gray wrappers, front cover with Union and Confederate flags in red, white and blue. Old and mild rippling to top margin. A very handsome copy. "Sam Davis is "The Boy Hero of the Confederacy." He wasn't a boy (he was 21 and battle-scarred) and although a combat veteran of several years of Civil War fighting, that's not where he became a hero. Injuries forced him into a less confrontational wartime role as a spy behind the Yankee lines -- and then he was caught, court-martialed, and hanged on a hill overlooking Pulaski on November 27, 1863" (Sam David Museum).
