Patterned on the old Long Hunter hunting shirts the Missouri Partisan Ranger the shirts were worn as an over shirt and had a V neck often ending in a rosette, a long tail and two large pockets. The shirts were often embroidered by wives, sweet hearts or sisters.
It's mentioned in the Outlaw Josey Wales when the Kid says his daddy did the needle point cause he didn't have "No Ma" and in Ride with the Devil as "Our Bushwhacker vestments."
Without a doubt it's one of the most distinctive garments of the war.
