Table of Contents
A note on weapons, tactics, units, and military customs
1862
April is the cruelest month ;; You must be badly scared
From failure to fortune
Nothing can be done
"Unconditional Surrender" Grant
This cruel war
He looked like an old Viking king
I would fight them if there were a million
All the furies of Hell broke loose
What followed, no man could well describe
Like shooting into a flock of sheep
It was all a glittering lie
I will lead you
My God, my God, it is too late!
I intend to withdraw
Ah! Tom Grafton
how mistaken you were!
An exalted distinction
The Battle of Shiloh and the organizations engaged.
