Any student of the Civil War, elite or novice, like myself, I think will enjoy this contribution by Peter S. Carmichael. He covers a wide variety of subjects that the ordinary soldier would encounter: day to day living, forced marches, fear, the list goes ever on. He draws on a wealth of personal letters and diaries to bring the life of a common soldier in the ranks.
