Sample Book Insights:
#1 Lewis Burwell Puller was born in 1898 into a small boy’s paradise in the village of West Point, Virginia. He was the oldest son of Matthew M. Puller, a wholesale grocery salesman who spent most of his time on the road.
#2 Lewis’s father died in 1908, and his mother began dismissing the family’s black servants. Lewis began trapping that winter, and sold the hides for fifteen cents each. He rarely spoke on these trips until noon, when they would sit on a log for a sandwich.
#3 Lewis’s favorite Confederate was the mayor of West Point, Sergeant Willis Eastwood, who had ridden with his grandfather and the gray cavalry. Eastwood often told the boys of the death of their grandfather: Your granddaddy was elected colonel of infantry in the county, but he wouldn’t have it—he gave it up to be captain in the horse troop.
#4 Lewis had a clinical interest in the veterans of the Confederate army, and he would often ask Sergeant Eastwood about the war. He became a merchant on his own initiative, and would sell steamed crabs from a nearby packing house.
