Produktbeschreibung
Echoes of Battle: Annals of Ohio's Soldiers in the Civil War Volume 1: Philippi to Perryville is the first in a three part series that presents hundreds of first hand battle accounts written by Ohioans during the Civil War. It was a war fought upon some of the bloodiest stages in American history such as Gettysburg, Chickamauga, and Antietam, and at obscure skirmishes such as Scary Creek, Snaggy Point, and Limestone Station. These Ohioans will recount the thrill of victory at Shiloh, Vicksburg and Missionary Ridge, and the sadness and demoralization of defeat at Chancellorsville, Fort Wagner, and Brice's Crossroads. The horrors of war will come home with stark clarity from places such as Port Republic, Corinth, Stones River, and Franklin. Sailors will recount their battles with Confederate forts and ironclads upon the placid western rivers, while cavalrymen will relay the sounds and terror of a cavalry charge. One will read what it is like to be shot, to witness the death of a brother or beloved comrade upon the battlefield, or to be captured by the enemy. One will read what it is like to be driven in panic from the field or the thrill of triumph when capturing an enemy flag or overwhelming an enemy battery. By dusting off these old and forgotten accounts of the war, it is hoped that this work will foster a deeper appreciation of the sacrifices made to restore the Union and provide future historians with valuable insights into how the common soldier experienced the war "inside and out."
