Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Civil War Letters, 1861 to 1865 Letter I. Camp Randall, Madison, Wis., January 19, 1862. Dear Mother: - We arrived here twelve o'clock Friday night, went to a hotel and got something to eat and stopped there until morning, when we went to the Capitol and were mustered into the United States service, and drew our uniforms, and now we are full fledged volunteer soldiers of Uncle Sam, and most of the Boys think now that they could whip the whole Southern Army, if they only had a chance. I saw Guy Myers here; his regiment has gone to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas; he was sick in the hospital and was left behind. Guy was a little surprised to see Sam and me. Sam and myself are both well, and feel as big as the rest of the boys in our new uniforms. I guess I will close this time, so will say Good Bye. Say, mother, as this is my first letter as a Soldier Boy put it away and keep it until I come home. Direct your letters to Camp Randall, Madison, Wisconsin, care of Captain McGowen. I do not know the letter of our Company yet; we will be in the 17th Regiment. Well Good Bye. Write soon. Affectionately, your boy, Letter II. Pittsburg Landing, Tenn., April 3, 1862. Dear Mother: - Our regiment left St. Louis March 26 on the steamer Imperial and went down the Mississippi to Cairo, Illinois, then up the Ohio to the Tennessee, and from there up the river to what they call here Pittsburg Landing. Cannot see much of a landing, only one log house. However we are back from the Landing about three miles and fixing our camp. There are four other regiments in our brigade, the 16th Wisconsin, 4th Kentucky and the 20th Missouri, besides ours. General McArthur commands the brigade and General Grant commands the whole army. Say, mother, it begins to look more like business than it did while, we were in camp up North and sometimes I wish I was up North now instead of here, but here I am and here I will stay, I suppose. Say, mother, I don't like old Captain McGowen at all; he is a cross old bear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War, the bloodiest war in the history of the United States, left its mark on not only the country but on families. Forgotten letters written by Pittsburgh residents Tom and John McClelland capture the intensity of the deadly challenges the young men of that time faced. Tom left home at 22 to seek his fortune in Arizona and save his family from bankruptcy, only to encounter a lawless territory terrorized by Apache warriors, Mexican desperadoes, and Confederate soldiers working to reach the Pacific. John, 19, enlisted in the Union Army's Independent Pennsylvania Light Artillery, fighting in major battles in northern Virginia, including Gettysburg. Their uncle, Col. Sam Black, organized the 62nd Penna Volunteer Regiment but found disaster at Gaines' Mill. As the Civil War rages from the Atlantic Ocean to the California-Arizona border, the brothers do their best to survive and serve their family and country. Their letters provide unforgettable first-hand perspectives on battles, politics, and social issues, as well as details about daily life, such as the dog John adopts to make Army life more bearable. Readers of The McClelland Civil War Letters: A Pittsburgh Family from 1861 to 1865 will step into the pages of history, experiencing the blood, honor, and courage of those who lived it.
