Read the excerpt from "Drummer Man." It turned out to be a good thing that I signed on again. It
wasn't long into my second year when our regiment
fought at the Siege of Corinth. In the heat of the fight we
made a desperate charge across a ravine and Captain
Williamson was wounded. So the call came in for a quick
retreat, but unfortunately the captain was left there
between the lines. Somebody had to rescue him, and it
was one of two times during the war that I was happy for
being small. I took off in a stooping run, unseen by the
enemy, and somehow found the strength to drag
Williamson back to the stretcher bearers and out of
harm's way.
