Download or read book The Letters and Papers of Charles Everett Roseberry written by Greg Roseberry and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Roseberry was 20 years old when he enlisted in the U. S. Army in 1942. Throughout his years in the army, beginning in Basic Training and continuing through his time in Africa, Italy, France, Germany and Austria, he wrote to his sister Margaret Roseberry Lawton who saved these letters for over 50 years. After his discharge, Charles Roseberry became active in the Disciples of Christ Church. With his letters are included his papers from this time. Rather than battle descriptions, what is found in the letters is the growth of a young man from a small southwest Virginia town away from home, in new countries with different customs, in the midst of war. His papers following the war reflect the continuing effect such an experience leaves on an individual.

Download or read book Brothers written by Greg Roseberry and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-08-21 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Everett Roseberry joined the United States Army in 1942 in part because he was single whereas his brother, William Chester Roseberry, was married. Charles served overseas in Africa, Italy, France and Germany. William Roseberry was drafted into the Army in 1944 just months before the birth of his second son on D-Day. William served in Italy in the North Appenines and Po River campaigns. Both brothers wrote regularly to their sister, Margaret Roseberry Lawton of Radford, Virginia who saved their letters for over 50 years before giving them to their children and grandchildren. The letters are not descriptions of the war, which would have been censored, but the concerns of two young men from a small southwest Virginia town finding themselves overseas and away from their families. Topics range from family matters to the capture or deaths of friends and a recurring theme is each brother's concern for the other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The battle of Bentonville, the only major Civil War battle fought in North Carolina, was the Confederacy's last attempt to stop the devastating march of William Tecumseh Sherman's army north through the Carolinas. Despite their numerical disadvantage, General Joseph E. Johnston's Confederate forces successfully ambushed one wing of Sherman's army on March 19, 1865 but were soon repulsed. For the Confederates, it was a heroic but futile effort to delay the inevitable: within a month, both Richmond and Raleigh had fallen, and Lee had surrendered.

Download or read book Civil War Field Artillery written by Earl J. Hess and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2022-10-05 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Civil War saw the creation of the largest, most potent artillery force ever deployed in a conflict fought in the Western Hemisphere. It was as sizable and powerful as any raised in prior European wars. Moreover, Union and Confederate artillery included the largest number of rifled pieces fielded in any conflagration in the world up to that point. Earl J. Hess’s Civil War Field Artillery is the first comprehensive general history of the artillery arm that supported infantry and cavalry in the conflict. Based on deep and expansive research, it serves as an exhaustive examination with abundant new interpretations that reenvision the Civil War’s military. Hess explores the major factors that affected artillerists and their work, including the hardware, the organization of artillery power, relationships between artillery officers and other commanders, and the influence of environmental factors on battlefield effectiveness. He also examines the lives of artillerymen, the use of artillery horses, manpower replacement practices, effects of the widespread construction of field fortifications on artillery performance, and the problems of resupplying batteries in the field. In one of his numerous reevalutions, Hess suggests that the early war practice of dispersing guns and assigning them to infantry brigades or divisions did not inhibit the massing of artillery power on the battlefield, and that the concentration system employed during the latter half of the conflict failed to produce a greater concentration of guns. In another break with previous scholarship, he shows that the efficacy of fuzes to explode long-range ordnance proved a problem that neither side was able to resolve during the war. Indeed, cumulative data on the types of projectiles fired in battle show that commanders lessened their use of the new long-range exploding ordnance due to bad fuzes and instead increased their use of solid shot, the oldest artillery projectile in history.
