Book excerpt: From the time of the American Revolution, most junior officers in the American military attained their positions through election by the volunteer soldiers in their company, a tradition that reflected commitment to democracy even in times of war. By the outset of the Civil War, citizen-officers had fallen under sharp criticism from career military leaders who decried their lack of discipline and efficiency in battle. Andrew S. Bledsoe’s Citizen-Officers explores the role of the volunteer officer corps during the Civil War and the unique leadership challenges they faced when military necessity clashed with the antebellum democratic values of volunteer soldiers. Bledsoe’s innovative evaluation of the lives and experiences of nearly 2,600 Union and Confederate company-grade junior officers from every theater of operations across four years of war reveals the intense pressures placed on these young leaders. Despite their inexperience and sometimes haphazard training in formal military maneuvers and leadership, citizen-officers frequently faced their first battles already in command of a company. These intense and costly encounters forced the independent, civic-minded volunteer soldiers to recognize the need for military hierarchy and to accept their place within it. Thus concepts of American citizenship, republican traditions in American life, and the brutality of combat shaped, and were in turn shaped by, the attitudes and actions of citizen-officers. Through an analysis of wartime writings, post-war reminiscences, company and regimental papers, census records, and demographic data, Citizen-Officers illuminates the centrality of the volunteer officer to the Civil War and to evolving narratives of American identity and military service.

This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Officers of the Army and Navy (Volunteer) Who Served in the Civil War Through a sense of justice to those who left their labors and their professions to enter the United States Service as Volunteers during the War of the Rebellion, and when peace was declared returned again to their accustomed avocations, this publication was conceived by the editor, in order that their records and portraits might be handed down to posterity along with those of the greatest of American soldiers who won their reputations with the volunteers, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, McClellan, Thomas, Meade, Hancock, and others. The volume includes those of Presidents of the United States, Cabinet Officers, Senators, Representatives, Ministers Plenipotentiary, Great Railway Magnates, Celebrated Lawyers, and gentlemen whose accumulated wealth assures them the title of kings in the financial world, all of whom served their country faithfully and well during the Civil War. Such an array of illustrious names has never appeared before in any one work; and, as the years accumulate in the age of the Grand Republic, future generations will point with pride to their ancestors who took part in preserving it as "The land of the free and the home of the brave."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the eve of the Civil War, the Regular Army of the United States was small, dispersed, untrained for large-scale operations, and woefully unprepared to suppress the rebellion of the secessionist states. Although the Regular Army expanded significantly during the war, reaching nearly sixty-seven thousand men, it was necessary to form an enormous army of state volunteers that overshadowed the Regulars and bore most of the combat burden. Nevertheless, the Regular Army played several critically important roles, notably providing leaders and exemplars for the Volunteers and managing the administration and logistics of the entire Union Army. In this first comprehensive study of the Regular Army in the Civil War, Clayton R. Newell and Charles R. Shrader focus primarily on the organizational history of the Regular Army and how it changed as an institution during the war, to emerge afterward as a reorganized and permanently expanded force. The eminent, award-winning military historian Edward M. Coffman provides a foreword.

Book excerpt: This is the never before told story of hundreds of American who went to war in defense of their beliefs, to seek adventure and to see some of the world beyond their rural Pennsylvania neighborhoods. Developed largely in the words of the soldiers of the 145th Pennsylvania Infantry, Common Men highlights some of the men's lives before the war and then carries the reader through trials and triumphs from enlistment, jubilant send-off, action from Antietam through Gettysburg and casualty. Democracy and the Union are sustained through the action of common men, men not always given the best of orders. -- back cover.

Download or read book The 6th Michigan Volunteer Infantry in the Civil War written by Eric R. Faust and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 6th Michigan Volunteer Infantry first deployed to Baltimore, where the soldiers' exemplary demeanor charmed a mainly secessionist population. Their subsequent service along the Mississippi River was a perfect storm of epidemic disease, logistical failures, guerrilla warfare, profiteering, martinet West Pointers and scheming field officers, along with the doldrums of camp life punctuated by bloody battles. The Michiganders responded with alcoholism, insubordination and depredations. Yet they saved the Union right at Baton Rouge and executed suicidal charges at Port Hudson. This first modern history of the controversial regiment concludes with a statistical analysis, a roster and a brief summary of its service following conversion to heavy artillery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil War Chaplains wondered whose side God was on, and if their ministries might be in vain. They saw, on both sides, God's Spirit at work. Was the Spirit divided, was God punishing both North and South for their sins, or was there some other explanation for this seemingly endless war?
