Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 2nd Edition. Reprint, 400pp, index, dust jacket, Brand New in new dust jacket. Never Read! One of the most famous regiments to serve in the Union Army during the American Civil War was the 20th Maine Volunteer Infantry. Raised in 1862, this outfit saw its first action at Fredericksburg. Originally commanded by Colonel Aldebert Ames, leadership of the regiment soon fell upon the shoulders of the most famous civilian soldier to serve during the w ar - Colonel Joshua Chamberlain. At Gettysburg, Chamberlain and the 20th Maine held the extreme left flank on Little Round Top and helped save the day for the Federal cause. After the war, only one v e teran of the unit attempted to chronicle the exploits of the 20th Maine Infantry. In 1882, Reverend Theodore Gerrish published "Army Life". Although there are brief, scattered accounts written by o t he r veterans pertaining to various aspects of the regiment's history, this remains the only full-length book purposely published by a 20th Maine veteran. This new addition of Gerrish's reminiscenc e s is indexed for the first time. Additionally, John J. Pullen, author of "The Twentieth Maine", has penned a fine introduction detailing information about Gerrish's life.…

Gerrish, of the famous 20th Maine Infantry, provides vivid details of what he saw and felt during those days of camp, march, bivouac, battlefield and hospital, often in minute detail. It possesses great interest and value; includes comments on Grant, Meade, Hooker, Joshua Chamberlain, and others with whom he came in contact. REFERENCES: DORN ME 125 (reprint); NEVINS I pg 93: "Often quoted, these memoirs of service in the Army of the Potomac are nevertheless fraught with errors and relatively limited observances." ; COULTER 182: "The reminiscences in a simpler form first appeared in the Republican Journal of Belfast, Maine, Gerrish was a member of the Twentieth Maine Volunteers, who got into the fighting first at the Battle of Antietam.
