Amputate...\" When he got to Allen Albert, the young man said, \"No, sir.\" The surgeon said the arm must come off but Albert persisted. Finally, the medical man walked away, saying, \"Your death is on your head.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAllen Albert nearly lost the arm at the battle of the Wilderness fighting for the Union army in the American Civil War. He eventually recovered and this little long-forgotten book is the 1913 memoir he penned for his grandchildren. Though short, it is full of soldierly detail and emotion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor less than you'd spend on gas going to the library, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBe sure to LOOK INSIDE by clicking the cover above or download a sample.","brand":"Big Byte Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47101763125488,"sku":"2940150368637","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940150368637_p0.jpg?v=1763743791","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940150368637","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
