The Confederate armies included in their ranks a remarkable range of nationalities--among them Germans; Irish; Italians; French; Poles; Mexicans; Cubans; Hungarians; Russians; Swedes; Danes; and Chinese. Covering the complete story of the activities of the foreigners in the Confederacy--in both military and civil service--this book recognizes their many contributions to the cause of the South. First published in 1940; it remains the only work on the subject.

We all know that Washington; Franklin; etc were Masons and contributed to making our country what it is now. But; I didn't realize that the fraternity and its teachings and philosophy played such a part in our freedom and representative government.Every Mason should read this book twice. The first time I couldn't digest all the information and so I am reading it again. I especially want to make sure I didn't miss anything. Very thorough; deep; history of Masonry in the United States from the beginning of our nation.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy CustomerA very good book.
