John McElroy (1846-1929) was an American printer, soldier, journalist and author, best- known for writing the novel The Red Acorn and the four-volume Andersonville: A Story of Rebel Military Prisons, based upon his lengthy confinement in the Confederate Andersonville prison camp during the American Civil War. The name for this story comes from First Division of the Fourteenth Army Corps, the cognizance of which was a crimson acorn, worn on the breasts of its gallant soldiers, and borne upon their battle flags. The men wearing this emblem were at Mill Springs, Perryville, Shiloh, Corinth, Stone River, Chickamauga, Mission Ridge, Atlanta, Jonesville, March to the Sea, and Bentonville. The story centers on two young lovers separated by war. | The Red Acorn by John Mcelroy, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
