Book Description
Excerpt from The Bivouac and the Battle-Field, or Campaign Sketches in Virginia and Maryland A few battle-pictures must, of course, find place in our Sketch-book, but they will aim at no general de lineation, being necessarily limited and partial, seek ing to be accurate, however, as far as they go. In deed, no absolutely veritable description of the varied movements over an extensive battle-field can ever be expected ten artistic word-painters will surely give us ten very different pictures, agreeing in generals, but dissimilar in details. Let a man consult the field offi cers of even a Single regiment as to its operations in a. Single fight, and from the incongruities in their sev eral statements he will be able to judge of the difficul ty in painting on canvas or with the pen a true battle picture. Of course, every narrator makes himself the central pivotal point around which the whole battle scenery revolves, and this not egotistically, but natu rally and necessarily. And just in proportion to the fidelity with which he gives us the facts as seen from his personal stand-point, drawing neither from his im agination nor the official reports, Shall we have a small but veritable bit of actual history.

The National Quarterly Review
Author: Voices from Gettysburg
Author: Allen C. GuelzoPublisher: Citadel Press
ISBN: 080654340X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 429
Book Description
The voices of those who witnessed the Battle of Gettysburg and its aftermath with their own eyes – who saw the bloodshed, heard its din, trembled in its crash, struggled with its aftermath – are collected for the first time by Allen C. Guelzo, America’s foremost Civil War scholar, in this moving and sobering oral history. This treasure trove of original documents – many never-before published – creates a uniquely personal, day-by-day eyewitness account of the monumental collision at Gettysburg, in the words of the commanders, soldiers, politicians, and civilians from both the North and the South who experienced firsthand the changing course of the Civil War. Three pivotal days in 1963 – July 1st through July 3rd – marked the beginning of the end of the Civil War. While the audible voices of those who experienced it first-hand in that crossroads town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania have been lost to history, their words live on in Voices from Gettysburg. Gathering a treasure trove of powerful, rare, and haunting original documents, New York Times bestselling author and award-winning historian Allen C. Guelzo presents a uniquely readable and intimate oral history of the Civil War’s turning point. We hear from a Union staff officer, a Confederate amputee, artilleryman, a sympathetic Northern woman, a Union prisoner-of-war, Union colonels and Confederate generals, a drummer boy, a fearful college student, those who orchestrated the Battle of Gettysburg, those who survived it, and those who would perish. With introductions from Guelzo, a detailed order of battle, and comprehensive list of every unit that fought, each of these original maps, personal letters, excerpts from forgotten memoirs, and more never-before-published documents offers an unprecedented narrative of the Great Rebellion and the impetus for Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address – in the authentic words of fire, blood, and smoke by those who saw the battle, heard its din, trembled in its crash, and struggled with its aftermath.
