He adhered to this plan when possibllle, but when in active field campaigning such as during the Jackson, Mississippi campaign, and the Virginia battles of May and June, 1864, it was impossible to write home. With these few exceptions, however, Pettit's letters generally flowed weekly through the mails to his family for two years until his death in front of Petersburg on July 9, 1864." "Through his keenly observant eyes we get a close-up view of the Civil War from the fighting man's unique perspective."- from the rear cover ad.

Inscribed by the author on the fep. The inscription reads With best wishes to my good friend and fellow Civil War collector, Irwin Rider. William G. Gavin 9/29/89. Previous owner's bookplate inside the front cover. Foreword by Warren W. Hassler. William G. "Bill" Gavin (1924-2010) was a descendent on maternal side of some of the earliest pioneer settlers of western Pennsylvania, circa 1800. He entered the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1943 and graduated in 1946. After graduation, he served as an Officer in the U.S. Army (Regular Army) until 1953, serving four years in Germany during his service. He was a member of the U.S. Army (Ready) Reserve from 1954 until 1961. After leaving the Regular Army, he entered the electronics business with Bell and Howell Company, and later, the Xerox Corp. He was an avid historian of the American Civil War and published four books pertaining to that war plus magazine articles. He was well known in Civil War collector and historical circles and built a large Civil War library and artifact collection beginning in the 1930s. The 100th Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry ("The Roundheads" and "The Round Head Regiment") was an infantry regiment that served in the Union Army during the American Civil War. The 100th Pennsylvania Infantry was organized at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and mustered in on August 31, 1861, for a three-year enlistment under the command of Colonel Daniel Leasure. The regiment's companies were enlisted largely from the following counties: Washington, Butler, Beaver, Westmoreland with the majority of the men coming from Lawrence. The unit got its nickname, the Round Head Regiment, because its men were primarily from the south-western region of Pennsylvania, which had been colonized by Roundheads around the time of the English Civil War. The 100th Pennsylvania Infantry mustered out July 24, 1865. The 100th, known as the Round Head Regiment, was recruited in the southwestern part of the state in August 1861, and ordered to Washington on September 2, where its organization was completed and it was mustered into the U. S. service for a three-year term. After arriving on November 7, 1862, the unit captured Forts Walker and Fort Beauregard. Beaufort was next occupied and the regiment remained in this vicinity for several months, the men suffering very much from sickness. The 100th, participated in the operations against Charleston in June 1862, and suffered many casualties in the engagement of June 16, near Secessionville. Returning to Hilton Head and Beaufort in July, it was ordered to Virginia, later being sent to Fredericksburg and attached to the 9th Corps of the Army of Virginia. After various marches during the month of August, the regiment met the enemy on the Bull Run battlefield, where it saw hard service. After engaging all day and losing heavily, a final charge was ordered, from which only 198 out of 450 returned unhurt. It was active at Chantilly and South Mountain, but was held in reserve at Antietam, owing to its crippled condition. It was engaged at Fredericksburg and after the battle performed important duty in covering the withdrawal of the troops, being selected as "The most reliable skirmish regiment in the brigade." In March 1863, it was transferred to the Department of the Ohio and sent to Lexington, Ky., from which place it was ordered in June to the support of Gen. Grant at Vicksburg. It participated in the fighting at Jackson, Miss., after the fall of Vicksburg, and lost many men from sickness as well as from the enemy's fire. On its return north it was ordered to East Tennessee though many of the men were not fit for active service. It participated in an engagement at Blue Springs and in the hardships of the Siege of Knoxville, in spite of which almost the entire regiment reenlisted on January 1, 1864. At Annapolis, the rendezvous of the 9t. Signed. …
