Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Company M and Adams in the War With Spain
This book is dedicated to the members of Company M, Second Massachusetts Infantry, United States Volunteers, dead and living men, particularly to the twelve good men and true, who at their country's call left home and friends and all held most dear to face not alone the bullets of their enemies, but the far more to be dreaded diseases incident to a tropical climate. That they did their duty well is a matter of history. In passing, it is but right that they should be the first in our memory. As men, they were the peers of their fellows. As soldiers, they were of the best.
