The Twenty-seventh Louisiana Volunteer Infantry was the first infantry
regiment assigned to the defense of Vicksburg, Mississippi. Inspired by his
great-grandfather, Burlin Moore Scriber, who served as a corporal in the
Louisiana Infantry's Company B, the author documents the undaunting courage of
this regiment during the forty-seven-day siege by Union soldiers before the
surrender of Vicksburg.
Mr. Scriber, graduating at the top of the 1992 class of the Louisiana Peace
Officers Standards and Training Academy, is a former Orleans Parish, Louisiana
Deputy Sheriff. He has also served as the security manager for the Queen of New
Orleans/Hilton Flamingo Casino in addition to serving as the director of
security and safety for the New Orleans Country Club. He later served as the
security/loss prevention manager for Jazzland Theme Park/Six Flags New Orleans.
A native of Louisiana, he and his wife currently reside in Knoxville, Tennessee.
