The Grand Army of the Republic was the granddaddy of all veteran organizations, but unlike later veteran organizations, was not opened to veterans of succeeding wars. The author's great grandfather had been active in the G.A.R., and it was his stories, as passed down through his son, that ignited Richard Partington's life-long interest in the Civil War. The Grand Army of the Republic was an important part of my boyhood and youth. It is my memory of the G.A.R. that I want to share with you. These memories have been reinforced by personal notes as well as old newspaper articles. This 3-part work...

The First Maryland Infantry was formed from Marylanders who chose to cast their lot with the Confederacy against a Union government that had invaded their state and established martial law, forcing those who disagreed with the invasion of the South to join the Confederates or to submit to what they considered as tyranny. Organized at Harpers Ferry, they fought in the first battle of the war at Bull Run, and distinguished themselves for their valor. The Marylanders fought in the Shenandoah Valley under Jackson, bringing new honors to their fame. During the Seven Day Campaign they made an outsta...

Seller ID: 033230

ISBN: 1-885033-23-0

Condition: Hardcover with dust jacket, 330 total pages, 30 photographs, full regimental roster, index, Blue Acorn Press

From Shiloh in April 1862 to the decisive victory at Nashville in December 1864, few Union regiments in the Civil War's western theater forged better service records than the 41st Ohio.
Often utilized in battle as shock troops, the fighting men of the 41st were imbued with discipline and spirit emanating from unusually high standards expected of the regiment's officers. Its first colonel, William B. Hazen, was a West Pointer who uncompromisingly used his pre-war experience as a Texas Indian fighter to transform raw recruits into competent, reliable soldiers. Along with strict adherence...

This book is about the men from the rural townships of Centerville, Hume and Granger (Allegany County, New York) who volunteered or were drafted to fight in The War Between the States. History, good or bad, is made by the average person who seeks neither fame nor fortune. This is their storyâ€”it is not about the war.

Mostly, this book offers readers a look at the lives of...

For years preceding the Civil War, the mountain people of western North Carolina lived under very different social and economic conditions than their plantation farming counterparts in other parts of the state. The mountain people did not generally own slaves, making them reluctant to contribute soldiers when North Carolina seceded from the Union. Many of these pro-Union Carolinians took up arms as Federal troops and engaged in guerrilla raids to disrupt Confederate operations within their home state. The Third Mounted Infantry was one such unit, organized under Col. George Washington Kirk in ...
