The author was the widow of General George E Pickett who resigned his commission in the US Army to join the Confederate States Army in the Civil War, and is best remembered for the ill-fated assault named Pickett's Charge in the Battle of Gettysburg. This memoir was first published in 1917, and is one of a number of books Pickett's widow wrote lionising her husband, whom she always referred to as "My Soldier".
