{"product_id":"on-rising-ground-elaine-fowler-palencia-9780881467666","title":"On Rising Ground","description":"When John M. Douthit of Appalachian Georgia enlisted as a private in Fannin County's 52nd Volunteer Infantry Regiment on March 4, 1862 and marched with neighbors to train at Camp McDonald, he left behind a pregnant wife, an eighteen-month-old daughter, and a small farm. A precious cache of family letters traces him to eastern Tennessee, where he served south of Cumberland Gap; through the failed Confederate invasion of Kentucky; on the march to join Bragg's forces near Murfreesboro, Tennessee; and finally, to the defense of Vicksburg, where John and his fellow North Georgians arrived during the Battle of Chickasaw Bayou. At Vicksburg, where John's younger brother Warren Davis Douthit joined him, five North Georgia regiments solidified into what became known as the Barton-Stovall Brigade. The Brigade manned the water batteries at Warrenton, Mississippi, fought in the Battle of Champion Hill, and afterward was bottled up in the siege of Vicksburg.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elaine Fowler Palencia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0881467669\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780881467666\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mercer University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 1.00d","brand":"Elaine Fowler Palencia","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43990845292799,"sku":"9780881467666","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_746cf2f2-6271-47b8-a57d-534771952a7e.jpg?v=1683307017","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/on-rising-ground-elaine-fowler-palencia-9780881467666","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
