Faithfully produced 3'x5' polyester printed flag of Hood's Texas Brigade. This is a famed flag belonging to the Texas Patriots serving in the Army of Northern Virginia. The original flag (see image) has significant damage resulting in almost a square flag. However, after extensive research, what's barely visible on the original flag (and stated in the flag's description) is the inclusion of 2 other battle honors on this historic flag: Eltham's Landing and Malvern Hill. Of note, both of these battle honors are painted on the flag in gold, but Eltham's Landing is bordered by red paint and Malvern Hill is bordered in green. We have faithfully included these details in this flag and it is the most accurate reproduction of this flag printed today. Robert E. Lee at the Battle of the Wilderness “Hurrah for Texas! Texans always move them!” -

This delightful hardbound children's book was originally published in 1867, a scant two years after the end of the War for Southern Independence. This is the story of three young Southern girls trying to understand why Santa Claus didn't visit the little Southern children during the four Christmases of the War. With the help of their auntie, they ponder this question one afternoon and finally write a letter to General Robert E. Lee, knowing he would be able to answer their question. They decide to put his answer, along with their dreams and other stories, into a book and give it to Santa Claus, so he could sell it for the benefit of the little Confederate children who had lost everything by the War. -
Marse Bradford Harrison, of St. Michaels, MD, gave 4 year old Eliza Ann Benson to his new born daughter, Braddie, in 1841. Eliza would be a slave to her infant owner in Harrison’s way of thinking. But a friendship began & a promise was made. Eliza stayed with Braddie through Braddie’s married life, which included the War Between the States & its aftermath; and when Braddie & her husband died leaving a family full of children & no one to rear them, there was one more promise that Eliza wanted to keep. Eliza’s down-home philosophy, loyalty, fortitude and love positively impacted Miss Braddie & 3 generations thereafter.
