Summary
"Unmarshalled save by their own deeds, the army of the dead sweep before us, wearing their wounds like stars."
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
Albert Beaumont Patterson, immigrant (of sorts), soldier (mostly against his will), and wanderer (by necessity), lives through the Civil War as a New Yorker, works out west as an Easterner, and builds a life all his own with people he loves as a reinvented Beau Patterson whose memories of all the different parts of his life have created him.
