Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Samuel Fields
both book sources were added by me after the article's nomination -in an effort to see if the article can be saved. According to the first source, he was an infantry private during the American Civil War and he ''"promoted himself to General"'', thus the article doesn't meet the  criteria
