Hancock's Diary

Full Title: Hancock's diary, or, A history of the Second Tennessee Confederate Cavalry : with sketches of First and Seventh battalions, also, portraits and biographical sketches.. Nashville, Tenn.: Brandon Print. Co., 1887.

The Second Tennessee Cavalry is Barteau's 2nd which was officially designated as the Tennessee 22nd Cavalry Regiment. The First Battalion is McNairy's First Cavalry Battalion and the Seventh Battalion is Bennett's 7th Cavalry Battalion.

Twenty years after this diary was written it was revised and supplemented with information gained from the writer's comrades and from official documents. It is therefore somewhat impersonal but no less reliable. Its chief value as a travel book lies in the author's clearly indicated routes, with incidental observations on the country and occasional references to people visited. Hancock's wartime travels were confined entirely to northern Alabama and Mississippi, Tennessee, and southeastern Kentucky. Much of the time he was following General Forrest and, notably, he was present at the so-called Fort Pillow massacre. In October 1864, he was wounded and thereafter took no part in the war. - Coulter.
