<p>“Walking to Hell” is the story of Ezekial McNair a description of his Tom Sawyer-like upbringing and his life in the Confederate infantry fighting in a war he didn’t understand for a cause he didn’t know but confident it was his path to heroism and glory. He did become a hero but only by accident in a battle that would haunt him his entire life. Zeke’s story is one of humor poignancy and tragedy. It describes the every-day life of a Confederate infantryman and provokes contemplation on how attitudes have changed and not changed since the 1860’s.</p>
