The History of the Rebel Yell

A yell that rings with Civil War lore. This definitive work details the origin and nature of the rebel yell, which has been largely lost to time. Author Terryl W. Elliott sets out to recapture the yell and bring it back to life at full volume. The text suggests a substantial theory of the origins of the yell in Scotch-Irish history, analyzes historical descriptions of the yell, and examines the few recorded versions in their historical context. Also included are historic stories and poems featuring the yell and a list of references.
