Item description from seller

xxviii, 138 pages. Hardcover: H 23.5cm x L 15.75cm. Lacks dust jacket. Dark tan cloth faintly soiled; slight brown spotting to spine cloth with ends lightly bumped. Toning/foxing to text block edges; past owner's red pencil signature on front pastedown; interior pages are otherwise clean. Binding retains some crispness. Still a very good+ copy. Civil War historian Bell Irvin Wiley, most noted for his long tenure at Emory University (1949-1974) but with early career teaching stints at Southern Miss, Ole Miss, and LSU, offers an extended Introduction on pages ix-xxiv with the book's original Preface by C.C. Wertenbaker on pages xxvii-xxviii. With six unpaged leaves of b/w plates between pages 2-3, six appendices (pages 81-132), a concluding Index which are also original to this McCowat-Mercer Press edition. REMINISCENCES OF BIG I was first published serially from April to December 1895 in the Charlottesville [Virginia] Progress with the first book format being a limited edition of 200 copies published by Charlottesville's The Michie Company in 1909. Alan Nevins bibliography "Civil War Books" summarizes Wood's account as a "direct and poignant recollection of a yeoman who worked up through the ranks and became an officer in the 19th Virginia." William Nathaniel Wood began his Confederate service as a private in Company A of the Nineteenth Virginia Infantry, aka the Monticello Guard, but, was soon promoted to lieutenant after First Manassas and commanded the company at Antietam and again at the Battle of Gettysburg upon the wounding of Captain John C. Culin during the ill-fated Pickett's Charge.
