Description

A concise yet vivid chronicle of one New York volunteer regiment, this volume follows Company G of the 157th from their first march in September 1862 through the final days of the conflict in July 1865. It presents a day‑by‑day record of movements, battles, and camp life, complemented by a complete roster that names each soldier and notes their service. The narrative captures the ordinary hardships—long marches, harsh weather, scarce rations—alongside the moments of camaraderie that defined the unit’s experience.

Written by a former comrade who served alongside the men, the account blends factual detail with personal reflection, offering a candid glimpse into the soldiers’ thoughts on leadership, comradeship, and the realities of war. Readers will find a respectful tribute to the volunteers from Lenox, preserving their names and deeds for descendants and Civil‑War enthusiasts alike. The book stands as both a historical record and a heartfelt memorial to a group whose story might otherwise have faded into obscurity.
