From Library Journal:
General readers will enjoy this anthology of 90 letters that humanize and dramatize the Civil War experience. Drawn primarily from the collections of the Military History Institute at Carlisle Barracks in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, the letters convincingly demonstrate how much Union and Confederate soldiers shared. Written without military censorship, the lettersfrom officers, doctors, chaplains, and volunteersdetail the moral certitude each side felt, unmask the soldiers' very real loneliness and frustration, and uncover the gossipy, social, even raucous side of war. Chronologically grouped and linked by connecting and explanatory text, these letters can help acquaint students with the massive Civil War correspondence that exists in the nation's archives. Marie Marmo Mullaney, Caldwell Coll., N.J.
