About this book

Fighting Joe, or The Fortunes of a Staff Officer, is by Oliver Optic and is described as A Story of the Great Rebellion. The major says he is a fighting man, and a captain says he is a coward by nature who would rather run than fight any time. A chapter headed A Skirmish on the Road describes horsemen as hard-looking fellows whose clothes were partly civilian and partly military.

Major Fred, who was the loyal brother, asks Major Ernest, who was the rebel brother, where he got Fred’s safe-conduct, and Ernest replies that he picked it up the night they were at home. John Somers is named as the major’s twin brother, who had come home to participate in a festive scene.
