Praise for Chicago's Battery Boys
"In masterful fashion Williams builds on the Brown correspondence incorporating other eyewitness accounts to tell the story of Capt. White, Quartermaster Brown and their comrades' wartime experiences... Williams, thanks to his research and writing, has provided a masterful unit history about Chicago's Battery Boys."
- Edwin C. Bearss,
noted Civil War author and tour guide
"Chicago's Battery Boys is a very worthwhile contribution to our knowledge of the Civil War. I found the book to be well-written and well-researched, and the letters interesting and judiciously edited. I am grateful that authors such as Rick Williams have continued to build on the heritage of Red River Campaign, which I wrote almost 50 years ago. It is reassuring that the Red River still flows on."
- Dr. Ludwell H. Johnson,
author of Red River Campaign:
Politics and Cotton in the Civil War
