Some of the best memoirs of the American Civil War were written by simple soldier-veterans whose straightforward and lack of pretense lend authenticity to their accounts.
This is certainly true of S.A. McNeil's recounting of his time with the 31st Ohio Volunteers. He manages to stuff more action, emotion, and humor into this short book than many longer books written by more educated veterans. He experienced great fear, determination, and was wounded at Missionary Ridge. He was quite convinced while bleeding on the ground, that his last breath was near.
His views on the issue of secession are equally interesting, coming as they do from the private soldier's point of view.
Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever. For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
