Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a compelling chronicle of the military service of a single family, the Calkinses, tracing their involvement in American wars from the colonial period through the Spanish-American War. The author meticulously researched official records, local histories, and family correspondence to assemble a detailed account of the Calkinses' contributions to the nation's defense. The book highlights the family's participation in significant conflicts such as the French and Indian Wars, the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Mexican-American War, and the Civil War, emphasizing the individual stories of bravery, sacrifice, and resilience. It delves into the unique challenges faced by soldiers, particularly during the Civil War, including the horrors of prisoner-of-war camps and the lingering consequences of wounds and disease.
