LUTHER B. HARRIS - A PRISON STORY A Vermont Soldier's Memoir of Andersonville and Other Rebel Camps by Denise Brown & Virginia Downs 137 pages $35.
This diary could easily have been lost to history were it not for the efforts of these two Vt authors. Luther was from Lyndonville Vt and became quite well off after the war and donated many things to the town. His story is a little different because he writes it as if he is telling the story to the northern soldiers who semi-rescued him many years before.
IT IS SWEET AND HONORABLE TO DIE FOR THE FATHERLAND The story of the soldiers from Cabot Vermont in the Civil War by David Book 169 large format pages of text and 22 pages of pictures. $40.
Dave was the principle of the Cabot school and gave his students the project of learning everything they could about the town Civil War monument.

This book is a true labor of love.
