Publisher's Synopsis
""What I Saw And Suffered In Rebel Prisons"" is a memoir written by Daniel G. Kelley, an American soldier who was captured by Confederate forces during the American Civil War and held as a prisoner of war in several rebel prisons. The book provides a firsthand account of the harsh conditions and brutal treatment that Union prisoners endured during their captivity, including inadequate food and shelter, rampant disease, and physical abuse by prison guards. Kelley also describes the various prisons he was held in, including Andersonville, one of the most infamous Confederate prisons, and his eventual release and return to Union lines. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the experiences of Civil War prisoners and the brutal realities of war.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
