Honor Without a Stain: The 34th Mississippi Infantry Regiment, 1862-1865 walks in the footstep of the average North Mississippian from his first engagement at Farmington, Mississippi across the battlefields of Perryville, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, and Atlanta, and into the grand coronation of death at Franklin and Nashville, Tennessee.

Included are never before published wartime diary and letter excerpts. Invaluable to genealogists will be the complete roster of the regiment including last known residences for survivors, circa 1907.
Honor Without a Stain is required reading for every serious student of the War Between the States. The author's best work yet, Honor Without a Stain is not only a great read, it's brimming with facts and personal anecdotes available in no other generally accessible publication anywhere. This book should be in every library, every school, and every private bookshelf across our country. The true story of the Civil War is here. Read it and you will understand.

"Honor Without A Stain", is well thought out with a logical flow. I don't know where the author found the birth date, death date and burial location for some of the men on the referenced roster, but that document needs to be corrected. I know for a fact the the information for my great-great-grandfather, George M.D. Street, is wrong. The referenced information in the book is actually that of his cousin George M. Street. The data for the correct George Street who served with the 34th Mississippi Infantry Regiment, is that he was born Feb 25, 1845 in Tippah County, MS and died Aug 9, 1923 in Wapanucka, OK. He enlisted as a Confederate Soldier with the 34th Mississippi Infantry, Company G (Sons of Liberty), together with his father Joseph J. Street, on Mar 17,1862. George M.D. Street is buried at Rose Hill Cemetery, Wapanucka, Johnston County, Oklahoma.
