Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Soldier's Recollections Leaves From the Diary, of a Young Confederate, 1910: With an Oration on the Motives and Aims, of the Soldiers of the South I have set down in the pages that follows some of my experiences and observations during my service with the Army of Northern Virginia, first as a private soldier, then as a staff officer, and finally as a chaplain in the field. I served in the ranks under Gen. Jos. E. Johnston and Gen. Thos. J. Jackson; as a staff officer under Brigadier-Gen. Geo. H. Steuart in the army of Gen. R. E. Lee; and as a chaplain in the Second Virginia Cavalry under Col. Thos. T. Munford, in the brigade of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee. It has not been my purpose to write a history of the campaigns in which I took so humble a part, but simply to present a few pen and ink sketches of the life and experience of a Confederate soldier, in the hope that I may thereby contribute in some small degree to a better understanding of the spirit of the epoch - both of the soldiers who fought the battles, and of the people on whose behalf they dared and suffered what they did. In telling this plain and unvarnished story I have been aided by the diary, or rather the diaries, which I kept during the war, and from which I have freely quoted, just as they were written, without recasting the sentences, or improving the style, or toning down the sentiments they contain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personal accounts are preeminent. Here we learn about life in the Army of Northern Virginia through young Randolph H. McKim's diaries. Randolph H. McKim was a first lieutenant and aide de camp in the 3rd Brigade, Johnston's Division, of the Army of Northern Virginia. Although McKim served first as a Confederate soldier, he later went into full time chaplaincy since he had studied for the Christian ministry before the war and because of the great need for chaplains. He eventually became Chaplain of the 2nd Virginia Cavalry. As an alternative to giving histories of campaigns, McKim gives his own experience as a soldier and chaplain. He wrote in this manner, "That I may thereby contribute in some small degree to a better understanding of the spirit of the epoch." His goal was to present the Confederate soldier's "purity of motive and his heroic constancy in danger and adversity." After the war, he was a "low church" minister in the Protestant Episcopal Church and resolute in his stand for orthodox theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Shenandoah Valley and Peninsula Campaigns of 1862, Union and Confederate soldiers faced unfamiliar and harsh environmental conditions--strange terrain, tainted water, swarms of flies and mosquitoes, interminable rain and snow storms, and oppressive heat--which contributed to escalating disease and diminished morale. Using soldiers' letters, diaries, and memoirs, plus a wealth of additional personal accounts, medical sources, newspapers, and government documents, Kathryn Shively Meier reveals how these soldiers strove to maintain their physical and mental health by combating their deadliest enemy--nature. Meier explores how soldiers forged informal networks of health care based on prewar civilian experience and adopted a universal set of self-care habits, including boiling water, altering camp terrain, eradicating insects, supplementing their diets with fruits and vegetables, constructing protective shelters, and most controversially, straggling. In order to improve their health, soldiers periodically had to adjust their ideas of manliness, class values, and race to the circumstances at hand. While self-care often proved superior to relying upon the inchoate military medical infrastructure, commanders chastised soldiers for testing army discipline, ultimately redrawing the boundaries of informal health care.
