Jack Hinson: A Civil War Sniper Hell Bent on Revenge

John W. “Jack” Hinson, better known as “Old Jack” to his family, was a prosperous farmer in Stewart County, Tennessee. A non-political man, he opposed secession from the Union even though he owned slaves. Friends and neighbors described him as a peaceable man, yet despite all this, he would end up going on a one-man killing spree.


This is a great read on an old man pushed too far who pushes back with extreme prejudice. If you are interested throw your name in the proverbial hat and try your luck. Contest ends when I decide it is over. Good luck. This is a true story by the way.
