Texans Who Wore the Gray . By Sid S. Johnson , Captain 3d Texas Cavalry, Ross Brigade, C. S. A., and Brigadier General, Texas Brigade, Forrest's Cavalry, U. C. V. 8vo., pp. 407.

This is a collection of short biographies of more than four hundred Texas soldiers, officers for the greater part, in the Civil War, interspersed here and there with anecdotes of the camp and field. While it leaves something to be desired in selection and proportion, the material is to the point and will prove of value to the student of that period of Texas history. The book would be more serviceable if the matter were arranged in some regular order, either by suitable grouping or alphabetically, but this defect is remedied somewhat by a good index.
