Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the outbreak of hostilities in April of 1861, thousands of men would be called upon to leave the safety of their homes and go off to war. This was a new experience; for many of these Òcitizen soldiersÓ, not only would it be the first time they were away from home, for many it was the first time they left their hometown. These new recruits would not only have to fight their fellow Americans, in many cases they would be facing their own relatives on the battlefield. Some men would carry muskets, others would carry revolvers. Some would fire cannons, while others waved swords, but there was one thing they all had in common, both enlisted man and officer, they all carried canteens. This book will give the reader a rare opportunity to take a glimpse into the past to see many rare and original canteens, accompanied by period photographs (many colorized). This book is published in full-color so you can really appreciate these unique artifacts from the Civil War. A full index is ideal for research.

Book Synopsis Civil War Artillery - A Pictorial Introduction by : Robert Jones
Download or read book Civil War Artillery - A Pictorial Introduction written by Robert Jones and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-08-15 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1861, it was a blast of artillery aimed at Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor which started four years of the most horrendous period in American history. At 4:30 a.m. on the morning of April 12th, forty three Confederate cannons opened up on the fortress. Miraculously, no one on either side had been killed or seriously wounded - a battle conclusion with these results would rarely happen again. The Confederacy had to struggle to place artillery and ammunition in the field. The Union had on hand 4,167 pieces of artillery, of which only 163 were field guns. When the rebels took over Federal arsenals in the south, they acquired a considerable amount of heavy guns, but only 35 much needed field pieces. Most of the country's powder mills were located in the North, and little ammunition had been made in the South for some fifty years. Starting almost from scratch, the South built some remarkably efficient mills and arsenals to meet the demands. Those four short years reshaped the military in many ways - the tactics of the artillery and how it was utilized is still being studied today. The artillery seldom received the grandeur of the cavalry and infantry, but it was those lethal iron projectiles which softened up the enemy to allow the charges and attacks. Take a trip through time beginning with the infancy of artillery during the American Revolution until the final shots were fired at Appomattox. Most of the major battles are visited, along with some lesser engagements, and the role that the artillery played regarding their outcome. With over 500 photographs, (many previously unpublished), the reader will get a real feel what it was like to serve with the artillery during the Civil War."--Back cover.
Book Synopsis Children at the Battle of Gettysburg - Their Unforgettable Summer by : Robert Jones
Download or read book Children at the Battle of Gettysburg - Their Unforgettable Summer written by Robert Jones and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The children of the 19th century were no different than todayÕs kids. They looked forward to summer and enjoying the pleasant weather. However, it wasnÕt all fun; most still had their daily chores to do, just as they did during the rest of the year - many farms and orchards were in Gettysburg. In 1863, AmericaÕs Civil War between the Northern and Southern states was in its third year. Most of the fighting was taking place in the south, so Gettysburg and its 2400 residents were spared the devastation which came along with the battles. They were truly aware of the ongoing war; many fathers, sons, and brothers answered the call when President Abraham Lincoln asked the Northern states, as it did of Pennsylvania, to support the Union cause. For the children of Gettysburg, it would not be their normal summer. There were always rumors about the Confederates coming, but now it all came true and it would indeed be their Òunforgettable summerÓ.

Book Synopsis Their Last Full Measure by : Joseph Wheelan
Download or read book Their Last Full Measure written by Joseph Wheelan and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dramatic developments unfolded during the first months of 1865 that brought America's bloody Civil War to a swift climax. As the Confederacy crumbled under the Union army's relentless "hammering," Federal armies marched on the Rebels' remaining bastions in Alabama, the Carolinas, and Virginia. General William T. Sherman's battle-hardened army conducted a punitive campaign against the seat of the Rebellion, South Carolina, while General-in-Chief Ulysses S. Grant sought to break the months-long siege at Petersburg, defended by Robert E. Lee's starving Army of Northern Virginia. In Richmond, Confederate President Jefferson Davis struggled to hold together his unraveling nation while simultaneously sanctioning diplomatic overtures to bid for peace. Meanwhile, President Abraham Lincoln took steps to end slavery in the United States forever. Their Last Full Measure relates these thrilling events, which followed one on the heels of another, from the battles ending the Petersburg siege and forcing Lee's surrender at Appomattox to the destruction of South Carolina's capital, the assassination of Lincoln, and the intensive manhunt for his killer. The fast-paced narrative braids the disparate events into a compelling account that includes powerful armies; leaders civil and military, flawed and splendid; and ordinary people, black and white, struggling to survive in the war's wreckage.
