520 _a"Those Times and These" by Irvin S. Cobb is a collection of stories set in the post-Civil War southern United States, likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around Judge Priest, a character with a rich backstory, known for his colorful past as a Confederate soldier and his present role as a circuit judge in Kentucky. Through humorous and poignant anecdotes, the stories reflect on themes of justice, friendship, and the changing social landscape of the South, often seen through the eyes of a young narrator who is eager to learn from the Judge and the tales that shape their community. The opening of the book introduces us to Judge Priest, who is affectionately referred to as "Fightin' Billy" from his days as a Confederate soldier. The young narrator, fascinated by the Judge's past, learns about his heroic and humorous experiences during the war. Sergeant Jimmy Bagby, a former comrade, recounts tales of their time in Mexico upon the war's end, capturing the camaraderie and resilience of the soldiers. As the characters navigate the remnants of a divided nation, the story sets the stage for exploring both the nostalgia for lost times and the complexities of rebuilding in a new era.
