Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Memorial Sketch of Lieut. Edgar M. Newcomb: Of the Nineteenth Mass; Vols More than twenty years have passed away since the heroic dead of Fredericksburg entered into rest. Why record the story of their sufferings? Or, if the "oft-repeated tale" must be again recited, why distinguish between the loyal men who fell at Fredericksburg, and equally-devoted patriots who met the last enemy on other fields? To these questions the only possible answer is that this biographical record was undertaken as a labor of love, in tribute to the memory of an intimate friend. The long-deferred personal sketch in the following pages is not intended for the perusal of the public, and need not occupy the attention of readers who have no interest in the scenes narrated. The sad story of Fredericksburg is, in many respects, peculiar, and perhaps no other conflict during the rebellion rests under the shadow of so dark a cloud. Its silver lining is so narrow as to be almost imperceptible to finite vision. The world has never seen better soldiers than those composing the Army of the Potomac. Brilliant genius, metal culture, sublime patriotism, dauntless courage, and inflexible purpose were in many instances conspicuous in the ranks, as well as among the commissioned officers. The best young men of the nation were found in the ranks of blue. The character of our noble defenders will be more correctly appreciated after a study of individual reminiscences. Very imperfectly and briefly, the life-work of a gallant young soldier will be narrated. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The War Was You and Me written by Joan E. Cashin and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though civilians constituted the majority of the nation's population and were intimately involved with almost every aspect of the war, we know little about the civilian experience of the Civil War. That experience was inherently dramatic. Southerners lived through the breakup of basic social and economic institutions, including, of course, slavery. Northerners witnessed the reorganization of society to fight the war. And citizens of the border regions grappled with elemental questions of loyalty that reached into the family itself. These original essays--all commissioned from established scholars, based on archival research, and written for a wide readership--recover the stories of civilians from Natchez to New England. They address the experiences of men, women, and children; of whites, slaves, and free blacks; and of civilians from numerous classes. Not least of these stories are the on-the-ground experiences of slaves seeking emancipation and the actions of white Northerners who resisted the draft. Many of the authors present brand new material, such as the war's effect on the sounds of daily life and on reading culture. Others examine the war's premiere events, including the battle of Gettysburg and the Lincoln assassination, from fresh perspectives. Several consider the passionate debate that broke out over how to remember the war, a debate that has persisted into our own time. In addition to the editor, the contributors are Peter W. Bardaglio, William Blair, W. Fitzhugh Brundage, Margaret S. Creighton, J. Matthew Gallman, Joseph T. Glatthaar, Anthony E. Kaye, Robert Kenzer, Elizabeth D. Leonard, Amy E. Murrell, George C. Rable, Nina Silber, Mark M. Smith, Mary Saracino Zboray, and Ronald J. Zboray. Together they describe the profound transformations in community relations, gender roles, race relations, and culture wrought by the central event in American history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Kreiser breathes new life into this most important of Union Army units. . . . A remarkably well-written and superbly researched account.” —David E. Long, author of The Jewel of Liberty: Abraham Lincoln’s Re-election and the End of Slavery Fair Oaks, the Seven Days, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Cold Harbor, Petersburg—the list of significant battles fought by the Second Corps, Army of the Potomac, is a long and distinguished one. This absorbing history of the Second Corps follows the unit’s creation and rise to prominence, the battles that earned it a reputation for hard fighting, and the legacy its veterans sought to maintain in the years after the Civil War. More than an account of battles, Defeating Lee gets to the heart of what motivated these men, why they fought so hard, and how they sustained a spirited defense of cause and country long after the guns had fallen silent. “[An] excellent contribution to Civil War history shelves.” —Midwest Book Review “Lawrence Kreiser tells the Second Corps’ story with verve and attention to personal as well as bureaucratic details.” —Civil War Librarian

Download or read book Frederick W. Lander written by Gary L. Ecelbarger and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tall and handsome, vigorous and hot-tempered, fearless to a fault, Frederick W. Lander (1821–1862) became one of the most name-recognized Americans in the years 1854 to 1862. A top-notch railroad and wagon-road engineer in the western territories, a popular lyceum speaker, a published fic-tion writer and poet, an adept negotiator with Native Americans, and an agent for the Lincoln administration and the Union army, the Massachusetts native attracted newspaper coverage from coast to coast for his renown and versatility. His name evoked emotion and passion among his friends and associates, including artists, poets, explorers, engineers, soldiers, and politicians, but at his untimely death early in the Civil War, he quickly and tragically descended into anonymity. With an energy that befits his subject, Gary L. Ecelbarger brings to life this intriguing, romantic personality of the nineteenth century, tempting the imagination to consider what Lander might have accomplished had he lived longer. Using more than five hundred unpublished letters and documents written by Lander and his colleagues, superiors, and subordinates, Ecelbarger delves into all of the major aspects of Lander’s life but focuses upon its final chapter in the Civil War. Promoted directly from unpaid aide-de-camp to brigadier general, Lander was quickly dubbed “the great natural American soldier” by Lieutenant General Winfield Scott for his brilliant promise as a military leader. The author offers a richly detailed narrative of Lander’s courageous participation in three campaigns during the first year of the conflict: Rich Mountain, May–July, 1861; Ball’s Bluff, September–October, 1861; and the previously undocumented campaign against Stonewall Jackson, January–March, 1862. Ecelbarger studies Lander’s flaws, attributes, and achievements to provide a judicious, comprehensive analysis of his actions and character. In Frederick W. Lander, he produces the spellbinding story of a once-forgotten hero who now appears life size.

Book excerpt: The discovery of Robert E. Lee’s Special Orders No. 191 outside of Frederick, Maryland, on September 13, 1862, is one of the most important and hotly disputed events of the American Civil War. For more than 150 years, historians have debated if George McClellan, commander of the Union Army of the Potomac, dawdled after receiving a copy of the orders before warily advancing to challenge Lee’s forces atop South Mountain. In The Tale Untwisted, authors Gene Thorp and Alexander Rossino document in exhaustive fashion how “Little Mac” in fact moved with uncharacteristic energy to counter the Confederate threat and take advantage of Lee’s divided forces, seizing the initiative and striking a blow in the process that wrecked Lee’s plans and sent his army reeling back toward Virginia. This study is a beautifully woven tour de force of primary research that may well be the final word on the debate over the fate and impact of the Lost Orders on the history of the 1862 Maryland Campaign.
