Pursued by the Union army, Morgan's Raiders blazed a trail of destruction unparalleled in Civil War history. Only a handful of Morgan's men lived to tell the tale... For seventeen years, Ty Mattson never knew if his father survived the Mexican War. But when he receives news that his father is alive--and he's joined the Confederate forces of General John Morgan--Ty leaves home to enlist with the Raiders...Owen Mattson turns out to be everything Ty imagined he would be: a good man, a true mentor, a great soldier. But a Confederate assassin's bullets nearly divide father and son yet again. From the blood-soaked chaos of Morgan's devastating defeat at Buffington Island to the harsh brutality of a Union prison, Ty Mattson will do whatever it takes to fight and survive. For his father. For the love of a beautiful woman. For the life and the land he treasures.

8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Raiding with Morgan By Steven E. Stump Woolard’s fictionalized history novels visit the Civil War for the first time.Morgan’s raid is personalized by young Ty Mattson leaving his grandfather’s comfortable farm to join the troop hoping to find his estranged father. Seventeen year old Mattson’s coming of age at war and on the trail is a realistic dose of hardship, fear, adventure, violence, learning and teen hormones.Woolard’s accurate view of rugged campaign life engages a cast of empathetic characters that will carry readers to the last page in the best combat tradition.Owen Mattson, Ty’s father is a daunting leader of Morgan’s raiders. Owen is in peril from Rebel revenge seekers from his Texas Ranger days as well as Blue Belly Yankee troops pursuing the raiders.Ty finds a love interest that must withstand family and military conflict.The raiding route includes realistic visits to small town and farms in the Ohio and Indiana.My grade school neighbored Camp Chase prison cemetery in Columbus, Ohio and I saw hundreds of tombstones tolling the high casualty rate of Civil War prison camps. Ty Mattson’s stay in the infamous Camp Douglas near Chicago personalizes inmate’s struggles with cruel guards, rampant disease, near starvation, and brutal weather.Woolard incorporates the reader in the daily life of men on an historic mission who pay a great price for the cause of secession. Woolard’s books are always a thought provoking historic episode providing quality entertainment.
6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. A coming of age story set during the Civil War By D. Shaner If you like historically accurate novels, then Raiding with Morgan is a book you will enjoy. It tells the tale of a young man estranged from his father who joins up with Morgan in Kentucky so he can meet his father.As the raiders travel through Indiana and Ohio, you learn the reason as to why the men are each estranged from their fathers. Because the young man is a new soldier, you get the perspective of what it was like to be behind enemy lines as how the Northerners viewed the Southerners and vice versa.The second half of the book tells what the young man experienced in a prison in Chicago, and how the conditions changed based on to what was happening to Union Prisoners in Andersonville.If you like the Civil War, or just like a good read, this book is for you. I can't wait to read the next book Mr. Woolard writes.

By Vegas Reader If you have the least taste for history and the Civil War, if you enjoy a gripping tale, if you love a can't put it down action adventure, Raiding with Morgan is the book for you...I hated it ending as I'll not find another as compelling as Woolard's book. Historical accuracy at it's very best. Don't miss this one. It'll stay in your library to be read again and again.
