Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Diary of an Enlisted Man
In the multitude of books written about the Civil War, very little is said of the enlisted man. His bravery and his loyalty are admitted and that is about all. Of his every-day life, the very thing his family and friends cared most to know about, there is hardly anything said.
It is to remedy this omission in some degree that the following pages are published. They were written by an enlisted man and are mostly about enlisted men. They are filled with details that history has no room for, and for that reason may have an interest quite their own.
