Fast and loose in Dixie. An unprejudiced narrative of personal experience as a prisoner of war at Libby, Macon, Savannah, and Charleston, with an account of a desperate leap from a moving train of cars, a weary tramp of forty-five days through swamps and mountains, places and people visited, etc., etc.

The writer was captured at Drewry's Bluff, May, 1864, and subsequently confined at Libby, Macon, Savannah and Charleston. He escaped in October, and the greater part of the book is devoted to his adventures in reaching the Union lines. Also available in digital form.
