Includes Introduction and Reminiscences of the War in Virginia. David French Boyd (October 5, 1834 - May 27, 1899) was an American teacher and educational administrator. He served as the first head of Louisiana State University (LSU), where he was a professor of mathematics and moral philosophy. He was also briefly the president of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Alabama (now Auburn University). Boyd migrated to Louisiana and, in 1860, joined the faculty of the newly created Louisiana State Seminary of Learning. There, he became a close friend of William Tecumseh Sherman, who famously warned Boyd of the South's folly in pursuing a war with the North which it could not possibly win. During the war, Boyd initially served in the 9th Louisiana Infantry, a regiment that was part of the famed Louisiana Tigers. He transferred to the Western Theater, where he was a major of engineering. He was captured by militia and sold to the Union Army. After the war, Boyd returned to the Seminary as superintendent and later wrote the charter that transformed the institution into Louisiana State University, based in Baton Rouge. He was dismissed in 1880, but was restored as president of LSU in 1884. T. Michael Parrish is the Linden G. Bowers Professor of American History at Baylor University. A former president of the Society of Civil War Historians, he is the author of Richard Taylor: Soldier Prince of Dixie (1992) and Brothers in Gray: The Civil War Letters of the Pierson Family (1997), and most recently, a coauthor of Doris Miller, Pearl Harbor, and the Birth of the Civil Rights Movement (2017). He also serves as editor or coeditor for book series on the Civil War era with the University of North Carolina Press, Louisiana State University Press, and the University of Arkansas Press. …
