A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Late in 1862, amid the horrors of the U.S. Civil War, Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, with President Lincolns approval, authorized the recruitment of Black soldiers for the Union cause. In January of 1863, the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry was born. On February 7, 1863, Massachusetts governor John Andrew commissioned Boston-bred John W. M. Appleton the first of the white officers in the most famous Civil War regiment of Black soldiers. Appleton immediately began recruiting enlisted soldiers for the company he would command, Company A.Waging War for Freedom with the 54th Massachusetts is a fresh look at the service of this famed regiment as told through Appletons memoir-the most complete first-person account available about the service of the men in the 54th Massachusetts regiment. Appleton wrote candidly about his own experiences and the men who served with and under him, including troop punishments, combat, and combat injuries, including his own. He also described in detail the weather, climate, southern geography, and his interaction with civilians. Appleton served with the regiment from February 1863 through August 1864, when severe injuries forced him home a second time. Taking Appletons memoir as their foundation, the editors thoroughly contextualize the service of the 54th through its disbanding in 1865, providing a fresh perspective on the men and the regiment as they fought to abolish slavery in the United States. The memoir of John W. M. Appleton, a field officer in the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, provides the most in-depth account available of the lives of the first regiment of free Black soldiers recruited during the Civil War.
