Maryland, migrated to Jackson County,
Mississippi in 1982, where he served as an addiction treatment specialist.
After retiring in 2002, he became a featured writer for the Gulf Coast Writers
Association’s publication, The Magnolia Quarterly, and a special work was
exhibited at the well-known Walter Anderson
Museum in Ocean
Springs, Mississippi.

history uncovered some true but little known accounts of slaves who served in
the Confederate Army. Though not an historian, he nevertheless passionately
desired to tell their story of sacrifice and courage. Through this fictional
account, these forgotten black Confederate soldiers will be remembered and
honored.view less
