"Thirteen Months in the Rebel Army" by William G. Stevenson is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book recounts the author's personal experiences and adventures while serving in the Confederate army during the American Civil War. It provides a unique perspective on the life of a soldier caught in the turmoil of rebellion, detailing the societal context and the various roles he undertook within the military services. At the start of the narrative, the author describes his journey leading to his enforced enlistment in the Rebel army. After an eventful experience with a local vigilante committee that nearly costs him his life due to his Northern origins and perceived abolitionist leanings, he finds himself compelled to volunteer. From there, Stevenson introduces us to his regiment as they navigate the challenges of military life, including camp duties, battles, and encounters with both camaraderie and conflict within the ranks, as he grapples with internal conflict regarding his allegiance and the implications of serving in a cause he does not support.
