With the Rank and File
註釋In one of the most amusing and readable memoirs from a rank and file soldier of the American Civil War, Thomas Ford's true tale of his time with the 24th Wisconsin Infantry could stand in for a million other Yanks. Ford saw action at Nashville, Perryville, Chicamauga and other battles.One of his commanders was the very young Arthur MacArthur, later father of famed WWII general, Douglas MacArthur. He also saw Sheridan in battle. But he mostly wrote about the rank and file, the boys who did most of the fighting.Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.
