I am almost finished writing a book on the Battle of Richmond,KY, fought August 30,1862, Kirby Smith's Army of Kentucky annihilated a green Union Army, inflicting over 75% casualties. Of the 17 infantry units engaged, seven were 8 regiments: The 1st and 2nd Arkansas Dismounted Rifles, 4th Arkansas Infantry Battalion, 4th Ark.Inf.Reg't., 13th, 15th, and 30th Ark.Inf., and the 31st Ark.Sharpshooters were engaged in heavy fighting. As was Capt.John T.Humphreys' Battery of Ark.Artillery. Most were in Cleburne's division. My wife is working on the cover, but we really need a picture or drawing, any image of the Western Confederate flag for her to work from. The flag I'm talking about has blue where the most common flag has red, and the cross the stars are on is red rather than blue. Also, instead of the St.Andrews 'X' cross, this one is actually a cross. If anyone can help me, please send the image attached to an email, to me at infidelgrunt@yahoo.com. I would also like any information anyone could possibly give me regarding the above mentioned ARK units. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
