Reminiscences of Camp Life and War News
A fragmented correspondence from Civil War days describes marches, camps, and inspections near Yorktown and Cumberland Landing. It includes a vivid anecdote of road tolls, a march with gear, and a long-suffering marchers’ account of mud, rain, and a brigades’ drag to haul heavy guns up a hill. The piece also quotes a pasteboard of anecdotes about Gen Burnside, a copper stamp incident at Panghkeepsie, and assorted contemporaries commenting on military action and politics.
