Product Description

Product Description

This biography of John S. "Old Jack" Hinson masterfully recounts the story of Hinsonís one-man war against the Union army and navy and his legendary feats as a Confederate sniper. A prosperous and influential plantation owner, Hinson watched the start of the Civil War with impartial disinterest. After a unit of untried Union occupation troops moved in on his land and summarily captured, executed, and placed the decapitated heads of Hinsonís sons on his gateposts, Hinson abandoned his quiet life for one of revenge. As a lone sniper, he wreaked havoc on Union forces, killing more than 100 Union soldiers and sailors, singlehandedly capturing a fully armed Union gunboat, and successfully eluding parts of nine regiments and a special force of Marines tasked for his destruction. An exemplary piece of historical scholarship, this definitive biography includes an amazing cast of characters, including the Earp Brothers, Nathan Bedford Forrest, and Jesse James.
