This pamphlet contains a brief history of the Point Lookout prison, and then explains the evolution of the plan and the assignments given to the Confederate Army, Navy, and the Marine Corps units in this joint operation. The balance of the text is devoted to the activities of Johnson and Gilmor. Two maps will aid the reader in following their ride around Baltimore City as they burn bridges, capture trains, and bring the war home to family and friends not since the outbreak of hostilities. In telling his story the author sites over 30 different sources in order to give this little known event a new perspective on both a national and local basis. Written by Daniel Carroll Toomey, 6 illustrations, 2 maps, notes.
