Summary
Less than eight hours of a wet April Saturday in 1862 along a stretch of Georgia railroad track have been widely acknowledged to contain the most melodramatic single sequence of events of the Civil War: the capture of a locomotive deep in the Confederacy by a party of twenty-two Union raiders and the ensuing eighty-six-mile chase led by a handful of determined and resourceful Georgia railroad men. -- Pg. xiii.
