Young, an officer in the famed Iron Brigade, as told through 155 letters home. His insights, often poignant and powerful, enable readers to witness the Civil War as he did. Young covers innumerable details of military service--from the camaraderie, pettiness, and thievery he witnessed among the troops, to the brutality of internecine war. Above all, Young's communications highlight his unflagging patriotism--his fierce determination to preserve the Union no matter the cost. Candid, contemplative, thorough, and occasionally humorous, Young provides a clear window into everyday events as well as into war, society, and politics. Civil War enthusiasts will appreciate this correspondence, as it reveals the perspective of a young officer from America's western heartland, a regional viewpoint generally omitted from Civil War-era documentary projects." -- from Publisher's website. 600 10 $a Young, Henry Falls, $d 1824-1902, $v Correspondence. 610 10 $a United States. $b Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, 7th (1861-1865) $b Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, 7th (1861-1865) 610 17 $a United States. $b Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, 7th (1861-1865) $b Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, 7th (1861-1865) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00664413 648 7 $a 1861-1865 $2 fast 650 0 $a Soldiers $z Wisconsin $v Correspondence. 650 7 $a Soldiers $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01125233 651 0 $a United States $x History $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $v Personal narratives. 651 7 $a United States $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 651 7 $a Wisconsin $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204595 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 655 7 $a Personal correspondence. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919948 655 7 $a Personal correspondence. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Personal narratives $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Larson, Micheal J., $e editor. 700 1 $a Smith, John David, $d 1949- $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20200829015058.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=32ECED96E9BD11EAA33BF2242FECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b IX2Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
