Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, a regimental history, details the experiences of the 77th New York State Volunteers during their service in the American Civil War. Through the lens of the regiment's personal diaries, letters, and military records, the author tells the larger story of the war's Eastern Theater, beginning with the 77th's formation and departure from Saratoga Springs, New York, through its role in the bloody campaigns of the Peninsula, Antietam, Fredericksburg, and Gettysburg, and finally to its participation in General Sheridan's Shenandoah Valley campaign that helped bring about the Confederacy's surrender. Through the regiment's experiences, the author also provides insights into the many hardships endured by Civil War soldiers, from illness, exposure to the elements, and combat, to the often harsh treatment of Union soldiers by Confederate civilians.
