Copied from mosocco.com's list of books & articles on Tennessee Confederate Regiments:
"10th Tennessee, "Rebel Sons of Erin: The Tenth Tennessee, C.S.A.," by Ed Gleeson.
The story of the "Bloody Tenth"; one of only two Irish Catholic regiments in the Confederate Army. These ditch-diggers from Nashville built Forts Henry and Donelson and then were captured and held in Camp Douglas Prison. Reconstituted, the 10th Tennessee was deployed as skirmishers at Chickamauga, Chattanooga and Atlanta."
