To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
POOR BRECKINRIDGE applied for a leave to visit Mary on August 23. His timing was terrible. Two days later orders arrived for him to pack his division and once again make the long trip from Mississippi to Tennessee. Rosecrans had maneuvered Bragg almost out of the state, forcing him into the vicinity of Chattanooga. Now, as September approached, the federal Army threatened to attack, and Bragg needed all the troops he could muster. With Breckinridge sitting idle at Camp Hurricane, Bragg shelved h...is animosity for the moment and called the Kentuckian to him.
Once again the Orphans made the trip in a week. For them this was the third time in a year for this thousand-mile journey. On August 26 they set ablaze their arbors and marched to Morton to board trains. Seven days later they made camp near Tyner’s Station, just under a dozen miles from Chattanooga, and the general reported to Bragg, then in the city.
During the next two weeks the Orphans largely rested and did light picket duty while Bragg awaited Rosecrans’ advance.
