Maryland, My Maryland
Summary
Poem written in the same rhyming pattern as the traditional "Maryland, My Maryland," but this version describes the shunning of Stonewall Jackson’s forces when they entered Frederick during the Confederate invasion of September 1862. The soldiers are described as "weak and poor" and the poem is not complimentary to the Confederates.
