Appalachian Rebels chronicles the struggles of the 5th Kentucky Infantry and 10th Kentucky Mounted during the War Between the States. From the beginning to the end, each skirmish/battle flows in a sequential manner into the next. The authors have endeavored to offer rediscovered documents (such as a letter from PVT Brashears and the Defeated Creek Diary) that have not been released until now. The goals of the authors are to offer to the reader a sequence of action that depicts the engagements, as well as the hardships endured by the brave men of Appalachia. They were not a rabble band of bushwhackers but a well-trained army committed to the cause. They remained steadfast to the last. This is their story, retold after lying dormant since 1865.
