About This Book

A soldier's field journal records the daily experiences of a Rhode Island light artillery battery from 1861 to 1864, offering chronological entries of marches, camps, picket duty, artillery engagements, weather, supply and pay details, and occasional battle accounts from campaigns around Winchester, the Peninsula, Maryland, and the Rappahannock including Fredericksburg. The volume includes rosters and reflective remarks, balancing practical military routine and personal observation to convey unit life, morale, logistical challenges, and the small moments that shaped wartime service.
