About This Book

A private soldier records memories of enlistment and service through the wound that ended his duty on May 15, 1864. He recounts the farewell and flag presentation, camp amusements and daily routine, marches and engagements including Harper’s Ferry and Newmarket, small skirmishes and notable incidents, and memorial notices for fallen comrades, offering practical observations and personal impressions rather than a formal regimental history.
