S. Army service Civil War career and postwar life. It includes letters from Confederate and Union officers unpublished battle reports detailed medical reports relating to Hood’s two major wounds and dozens of letters exchanged between Hood and his wife Anna. This treasure trove is being made available for the first time for both professional and amateur Civil War historians in The Lost Papers of Confederate General John Bell Hood edited and annotated by award-winning author Stephen M. Hood. The historical community long believed General Hood’s papers were lost or destroyed and numerous books and articles were written about him without the benefit of these invaluable documents. in fact the papers had been carefully preserved for generations by Hood’s decendants. In 2012 collateral descendent Stephen Hood was given access to these papers as part of his research forhis book John Bell Hood: The Rise Fall and Resurrection of a Confederate General.
