Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Brief History of the Thirty-Fourth Regiment, N. Y. S. V: Embracing a Complete Roster of All Officers and Men, and a Full Account of the Dedication of the Monument on the Battlefield of Antietam, September 17, 1902
And I have not only had in mind to make praiseworthy mention of all the members of the regiment, but also to give their names a sure footing for all time to come. Granite will crumble; iron will rust; wood will decay; and nothing in this world is very stable; but, so far as lay in my power, I have tried to fix the records of these comrades in an enduring form and place.
