Inspired by the international rural-cemetery movement, created amid controversy in the 1840's and 1850's, and challenged by the toll of the Civil War, Hollywood Cemetery is a Southern landmark. Here lie Jefferson Davis, James Monroe, John Tyler, six Virginia governors, and countless Confederate officers and soldiers. Gracefully written after a decade of research in original records, Mrs. Mitchell's HOLLYWOOD CEMETERY will interest readers throughout Virginia, the South, and the nation.

As many as 9,500 men of Hispanic heritage fought in the United States' Civil War. In Texas, the bitter conflict deeply divided the Tejanos - Texans of Mexican heritage. An estimated 2,500 fought in the ranks of the Confederacy while 950, including some Mexican nationals, fought for the Stars and Stripes. Vaqueros in Blue & Gray, originally published in 1976, is the story of these Tejanos who participated in the Civil War. The new edition of the history of these vaqueros contains the first comprehensive list, containing almost 4,000 names, ever compiled of the Confederate and Union Hispanics from Texas who served in the war.
