Description

The pages bring listeners into the ranks of a Union regiment that fought from the early clashes at Winchester and Cedar Mountain to the climactic campaigns of Atlanta, the March to the Sea, and the Carolinas. Drawn from letters, diaries and official reports submitted by the men themselves, the narrative offers a steady, unembellished view of marching, combat, and camp life, letting the voices of ordinary soldiers tell the story of their hardships and camaraderie.

The volume was assembled by a committee of former comrades who painstakingly verified each entry, striving for accuracy over heroics. Its tone avoids the usual glorification of a few, instead honoring the collective effort of hundreds who wore the blue together. For anyone interested in the lived experience of the Civil War, this account provides a vivid, human snapshot of a regiment’s journey and the enduring bond forged under fire.
