It fought from the beginning of the war, and was part of Artillery originally under S Edward Moore offers a history of the Rockbridge Artillery through his own service and recollections, from time to time calling on the memories of others where he is not present. It fought from the beginning of the war, and was part of Artillery originally under Stonewall Jackson, and served at every major conflict in the east, surrendering at Appomattox.
Moore was a student at Washington College in Lexington at the start of the war. He had never been away from the Mountains of Virginia. He gives his account without much fanfare of the cause, but honors the bravery and valor of his fellow soldiers. He jumps around a bit - often relaying the final war fate of a person in a particular story or throwing in random details that may or may not directly link in with the action.
It is a very intimate account. Readers will enjoy the names - these were real people after all - and that it is an eye witness account. Moore has lived this. His writing style is strait forward and somewhat folksy in presentation. Jan 25, Andrew rated it really liked it Shelves: This is a pretty entertaining account by an enlisted member of one of the more famous artillery units of the Civil War.
Moore's recounting of the campaigns in which he served under "Stonewall" Jackson are particularly good. While this book, like most of it's kind, has the occasional factual errors, the author's narrative rings true. It's also refreshing that this book lacks the bitter partisanship that sometimes infests Civil War memoirs.
This was a free Kindle edition, and as is usual with those This is a pretty entertaining account by an enlisted member of one of the more famous artillery units of the Civil War. This was a free Kindle edition, and as is usual with those, all of the illustrations have been removed. The captions for the illustrations have, annoyingly, been left in the book. This is a good matter-of-fact book on the Rockbridge Artillery from the Valley Campaign in until Appomattox. It gives a good representation of life in the Army of Northern Virginia during these years.
It gives the view of how the soldiers saw the war, their leaders, and how they lived during the war.
This is a good civil war personal narrative that should be more well known. The writer is simple, impressive, and sincere.
And his memory is not less faithful. It is a striking and truthful portrayal of the times under the standard of one of the greatest generals of ancient or modern times. It is from such books that data will be gathered by the future historian for a true story of the great conflict between the States. For nearly a year from March to November, I served in the battery with this cannoneer, and for a time we were in the same mess. Since the war I have known him intimately, and it gives me great pleasure to be able to say that there is no one who could give a more honest and truthful account of the events of our struggle from the standpoint of a private soldier.
He had exceptional opportunities for observing men and events, and has taken full advantage of them. Toon meer Toon minder. Overige kenmerken Extra groot lettertype Nee.
