About This Book

An eyewitness account of a South Carolina brigade traces its genesis after secession, detailing enrollment, organization, officer and company rosters, and daily life in camp; it follows the unit through mobilization, engagements, logistical and command affairs, and ultimate surrender, interweaving biographical sketches, personal incidents, anecdotes, and regimental rolls. Narrative chapters present operational chronology and battlefield recollections, while appendices and an index supply formal rosters and reference material for veterans and researchers.
