"The famous filibuster Roberdeau Wheat, returning from Italy in the spring of 1861, intended to raise a company of New Orleans troops and then a full regiment for Confederate service. And once he proved his mettle in battle, he'd no doubt gain a brigadier's star. As such, on April 18, 1861, just a few days after Fort Sumter was attacked by Confederate forces, the New Orleans Daily Crescent carried the following announcement: "We understand that our friend, Gen. C. R. Wheat, is about to raise a company of volunteers, to serve in the Army of Louisiana. His headquarters are on 64 Saint Charles Street, where we advise all friends of a glorious cause to repair and enlist." " (from Wikipedia). Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket .
