Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These are the wartime adventures of an Englishman who adopted the confederate cause in the War Between the States, and who consequently joined the crew of a Confederate cruiser that sailed from Southampton in 1862 to run the Union blockade. Afterward, he served in the confederate army and participated in eleven battles. His reminiscences were written less than ten years after his experiences, and he presents them in a readable and cogent manner, as one would expect from a man whose chosen profession was that of journalist. After the war, he and a partner acquired the older Charleston courier and blended the two papers as the news and courier, with the author, Francis "Frank" Dawson as editor. Perhaps his wife is better known to the present generation than he; Sarah Morgan Dawson's The Civil War Diary of a Southern Woman, is still in circulation and widely read today. His life was fruitful, but short. At the age of 48, he was murdered. Annotations delve into the story behind his murder and provide references for further reading. There are more than ten illustrations that were not in the original edition, of which only 100 copies were printed for private reading. Now a wide audience has the means to enjoy this fascinating book

Book The Story of a Common Soldier of Army Life in the Civil War 1861 1865

Download or read book The Story of a Common Soldier of Army Life in the Civil War 1861 1865 written by Leander Stillwell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-09-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of the more popular memoirs written by a soldier during the Civil War. From the preface: "When I began writing these reminiscences it did not occur to me that anything in the nature of a preface was necessary. It was thought that the dedication to my son Jerry contained sufficient explanation. But I have now finished writing these recollections, and in view of all that they set forth, I believe that a few brief prefatory remarks may now be appropriate. In the first place it will be said that when I began the work it was only to gratify my son, and without any thought or expectation that it would ever be published. I don't know yet that such will be done, but it may happen. The thought occurred to me after I had written some part of it, and it is possible that about at that point some change began to take place in the style, and phraseology, and which perhaps may be observed. So much for that. Next I will say that all statements of fact herein made, based upon my own knowledge, can be relied on as absolutely true. My mother most carefully preserved the letters I wrote home from the army to her and to my father. She died on February 6, 1894, and thereafter my father (who survived her only about three years) gave back to me these old letters. In writing to my parents I wrote, as a rule, a letter every week when the opportunity was afforded, and now in this undertaking with these letters before me it was easy to follow the regiment every mile of its way from Camp Carrollton in January, 1862, to Camp Butler, in September, 1865. Furthermore, on June 1, 1863, at Memphis, Tennessee, as we passed through there on our way to join Grant's army at Vicksburg, I bought a little blank book about four inches long, three inches wide, and half an inch thick. From that time until we were mustered out, I kept a sort of very brief diary in this little book, and have it yet. The old letters and this book have been invaluable to me in writing my recollections, and having been written at or near the time of the happening of the events they mention, can be relied on as accurate and truthful. Though I attained the rank of a commissioned officer while in the service, yet that did not occur until near the end of my time, and after the war was over. So it is submitted that the title given these sketches, "The Story of a Common Soldier," is warranted by the facts. If this manuscript should ever be published, it will go to the world without any apology or commendation from me whatever. It is, though, only fair to say that I make no pretensions to being a "literary" man. This is simply the story of a common soldier who served in the army during the great war, and who faithfully tried to do his duty."
