Download or read book Double Duty in the Civil War written by George S Burkhardt and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2009-06-10 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1861 at the age of eighteen, Edward Woolsey Bacon, a Yale student and son of well-known abolitionist minister Leonard Bacon, left his home in New Haven, Connecticut, to fight for the United States. Over the next four years Bacon served in both the Union navy and army, which gave him a sweeping view of the Civil War. His postings included being a captain’s clerk on the USS Iroquois, a hospital clerk in his hometown, a captain in the 29th Connecticut Infantry (Colored), and a major in the 117th U.S. Colored Infantry, and he described these experiences in vibrant letters to his friends and family. Historian George S. Burkhardt has compiled these letters, as well as Bacon’s diary in the impressive Double Duty in the Civil War: The Letters of Sailor and Soldier Edward W. Bacon. Bacon tells of hunting Confederate commerce raiders on the high seas, enduring the tedium of blockade duty, and taking part in riverine warfare on the Mississippi. He recalls sweating in South Carolina as an infantry officer during drill and picket duty, suffering constant danger in the battlefield trenches of Virginia, marching victoriously on fallen Richmond, and tolerating the boredom of occupation duty in Texas. His highly entertaining letters shed new light on naval affairs and reveal a close-knit family life. The narrative of his duty with black troops is especially valuable, since few first-hand accounts from white officers of the U.S. Colored Troops exist. Furthermore, his beliefs about race, slavery, and the Union cause were unconventional for the time and stand in contrast to those held by many of his contemporaries. Double Duty in the Civil War is filled with lively descriptions of the men Bacon met and the events he experienced. With Burkhardt’s careful editing and useful annotations, Bacon’s letters and diary excerpts give rare insight into areas of the Civil War that have been neglected because of a lack of available sources. Given the scarcity of eyewitness testimonies to navy life and life in African American regiments, this book is a rarity indeed.

Download or read book Recollections of an Old Soldier written by David Perry and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-16 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Perry was an American soldier who fought in the Revolutionary War, which resulted in the founding of the United States - this autobiography recalls his early years, and his role in the conflict. Born in colonial Massachusetts on August 8th, 1741, Perry had a difficult childhood - the death of his mother when he was merely seven meant he was sent to live with his uncle to learn the trade of tanning and shoemaking. Like many boys of his time, he received basic militia and leadership training in the countryside of New England, and saw battle whilst a teenager. Perry's earliest memories of conflict consist of his regiment receiving hails of French musket fire - with surgery unavailable, many men lived with musket balls in their bodies until they died. Eager to fight, Perry also served in conflicts in Quebec, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, becoming a battle-hardened young man. Between 1762 and 1775 he enjoyed a period of peace in his life, marrying and living by his skills as a shoemaker. However, the arguments between colonial North America and Great Britain boiled over to war - as a soldier fighting for the cause of an independent United States, Perry would face the greatest dangers of his life.

On the banks of this river, only a few miles from its entrance into the Atlantic Ocean, there stood not long ago a pretty rustic cottage, covered all over with scarlet woodbine and white Cherokee roses.
