"The Rough Side of War"

In the August 2018 issue of The Groundhog, Judge David Raines wrote an article, "The Road to Chickamauga," which heavily quoted the Civil War journal of Chesley A. Mosman, a Union soldier who wrote about his time spent in the Mentone area while the troops rested before proceeding to Chickamauga. Mayor Rob Hammond generously donated $85 so we could acquire The Rough Side of War, which contains Mosman's prolific journal entries. It is a book which is sure to please anyone interested in Civil War or local history. Thank you, Mayor Hammond!
