A former Confederate major provides a concise regimental history of Maryland men who served with Southern forces, tracing the formation, organization, and battlefield service of infantry, cavalry, and artillery units. The narrative combines chronological accounts of campaigns and engagements, unit rosters and casualty returns, commentary on reorganizations and personnel changes, and brief personal anecdotes and reflections on recruitment and morale. Final sections recap losses and the condition of units at the war’s end, and highlight selected actions, including participation at Second Manassas.
