Recollections of Rifleman Harris, (Old 95th.) / with anecdotes of his officers and his comrades

The narrator, a long-serving rifleman, recounts his life from rural recruitment through training, punishments, and active campaigns, offering vivid scenes of military routine, executions, skirmishes, marches, and the bonds and grievances among officers and comrades. Anecdotes and reflections illuminate discipline, the hardships of service, and occasional moral criticisms of army practices, while editorial notes frame the memoir as a plainspoken testimonial that blends personal recollection with observations on leadership, soldierly character, and the realities of warfare.
