Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred and fifty years ago, the United States was saved at the Battle of Gettysburg. At most of the decisive points of the battle, it was soldiers from Maine that stopped the Rebel army in its tracks. While Joshua Chamberlain and his 20th Maine Regiment are perhaps the most well known, in fact eleven infantry and cavalry regiments, plus three artillery batteries and a company of sharpshooters--comprising some 3,700 volunteers--represented the state of Maine in the battle. Historian Jerry Desmond details, location by location around the battlefield, the heroic actions of the volunteer regiments from Maine.

Book Synopsis Civil War Regiments from Maine, 1861-1865 by : Joshua Chamberlain Chamberlain
Download or read book Civil War Regiments from Maine, 1861-1865 written by Joshua Chamberlain Chamberlain and published by Ebooksondisk.Com. This book was released on 2003 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Civil War Regiments from Maine, 1861-1865," details the histories of the regiments and batteries raised in Maine during the Civil War. Each entry provides the names of the senior officers, number of enlistments, number of deaths in battle and from other causes. The state of Maine enlisted 65,000 men to fight for the Army and l 5,000 for the Navy, raising 32 infantry, 2 cavalry, 1 heavy artillery, and 1 sharpshooter regiments, and 7 light artillery batteries. Many regiments earned fame and glory but none more than the Twentieth Maine Infantry. The Twentieth defended the extreme left of the Union line on Little Round Top during the battle of Gettysburg from a Confederate attack that, if successful, could have swept the entire Union army from the field. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, author of this volume, served with the Twentieth, rising from Lieutenant Colonel, Colonel, Brigadier General and Brevet Major General. He was wounded six times during the war and had the honor of receiving the first Confederate surrenders at Appomattox Court House. The First Maine Heavy Artillery suffered the highest number of casualties in a single battle when 210 of its rank fell dead or mortally wounded charging Petersburg's defenses. The soldiers from Maine, according Fox's "Regimental Losses," suffered an 18.9% casualty rate, including deaths by disease, the highest percentage of loss for any Union state during the war. Losses in battle were 3,184 and death from disease and other causes were 6,214. Thirteen regiments from Maine are counted among Fox's 300 Fighting Regiments and can be found in "Regimental Losses of the American Civil War" (also available in paperback from eBooksOnDisk.com).

Download or read book Maine Roads to Gettysburg written by Tom Huntington and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of Searching for George Gordon Meade, a study of how troops from Maine aided the Union Army’s victory at the Battle of Gettysburg. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain and his 20th Maine regiment made a legendary stand on Little Round Top during the Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863. But Maine’s role in the battle includes much more than that. Soldiers from the Pine Tree State contributed mightily during the three days of fighting. Pious general Oliver Otis Howard secured the high ground of Cemetery Ridge for the Union on the first day. Adelbert Ames—the stern taskmaster who had transformed the 20th Maine into a fighting regiment—commanded a brigade and then a division at Gettysburg. The 17th Maine fought ably in the confused and bloody action in the Wheatfield; a sea captain turned artilleryman named Freeman McGilvery cobbled together a defensive line that proved decisive on July 2; and the 19th Maine helped stop Pickett’s Charge during the battle’s climax. Maine soldiers had fought and died for two bloody years even before they reached Gettysburg. They had fallen on battlefields in Virginia and Maryland. They had died in front of Richmond, in the Shenandoah Valley, on the bloody fields of Antietam, in the Slaughter Pen at Fredericksburg, and in the tangled Wilderness around Chancellorsville. And the survivors kept fighting, even as they followed Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia into Pennsylvania. In Maine Roads to Gettysburg, author Tom Huntington tells their stories. Praise for Searching for George Gordon Meade “An engrossing narrative that the reader can scarcely put down.” —Pulitzer Prize-winning historian James M. McPherson “Unique and irresistible.” —Lincoln Prize-winning historian Harold Holzer
