Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the life and letters of Wilder Dwight, a man who left an enduring legacy through his service in the Civil War. Born into a prominent New England family with a long history of public service, Dwight's character was shaped by his upbringing and the values of his community. The author traces Dwight's journey from his early education at Phillips Exeter Academy and Harvard College, to his legal studies at Cambridge Law School. After graduating, Dwight spent a year traveling in Europe, where he developed a keen interest in politics and the social issues of his time. Upon his return to the United States, Dwight became involved in the anti-slavery movement and was a vocal supporter of Abraham Lincoln's presidential campaign. When the Civil War broke out, Dwight played a crucial role in raising the Second Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, which he joined as a major. Through his detailed examination of Dwight's personal letters and writings, the author provides a vivid account of the challenges and triumphs faced by Union soldiers during the war. Dwight's unwavering commitment to the cause of freedom and his dedication to his men shines through in his correspondence, offering a unique perspective on one of the most transformative events in American history.
