The Long Tattoo
Jerrold Mundis
This novel chronicles a Union regiment of fugitive slaves seeking revenge during the Civil War. Scarred and unchained, their thirst for vengeance led to savagery with no limits. The women who loved them, white officers who led them, and the brutality of war are all examined. This is a shattering read that is not for the faint of heart.
