Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the primary source archive of a young American man who went from enjoying life to becoming a casualty of the Civil War. This well-documented account of young Wilder Dwight's life and letters provides a fascinating analysis of his personal growth, intellectual development, and deep patriotism. The author's objective, almost daily, letters home reveal his profound feelings about family, friends, nature, literature, education, religion, and the law. The book positions Dwight's story within the 19th century literary and political landscape of America in addition to revealing his deep thematic reflections on honor, duty, courage, and sacrifice. A particularly compelling aspect of the book is the author's nuanced treatment of Dwight's struggle with his own temper and irritability coupled with his innate nobility, revealing a complex inner life and a man with deep reserves of strength, compassion, and resilience. Dwight's personal narrative would prove insightful for anyone interested in the American Civil War, 19th century American literature and culture, history, biography, and personal narrative. Through a journey of self-discovery and patriotism, this remarkable book movingly chronicles the life of a man who died in service to his country.
