A propos de cet article

SUBTITLED: Containing Sketches of Service in the South, and the Experience, Incidents and Observations Connected with Almost Two Years Imprisonment at Johnson's Island, Ohio where 3,000 Confederate Officers were confined. With an Introduction by Gen. L.M. Lewis and a medical history of Johnson's Island by Col. I.G. Steedman. BOOK DESCRIPTION: 8vo, xv, (17)-382 pgs. Original brown cloth, gilt titled spine. CONDITION DESCRIPTION: Edges and spine ends rubbed and worn; top of spine damaged; spine gilt faded. Interior is clean and tight. With clear mylar wrapper. CONTENTS DESCRIPTION: A very scarce Confederate narrative. The Sixtieth Tennessee (Confederate) Regiment was organized in East Tennessee in the autumn of 1862, with John H Crawford, Colonel. Soon after its organization it was assigned to the brigade of John C Vaughn and ordered to Mississippi and Louisiana, and remained with him thereafter. It was engaged at Jackson, and against Sherman's movement on Vicksburg. During the siege of that city, it garrisoned in the Confederate works. It also assisted gallantly in opposing the advance of Gen. Grant from below Vicksburg. At Big Black Bridge it lost severely and fought against great odds. July 4, 1863, it was surrendered with Pemberton's army, after having reached the point of starvation. It was finally exchanged, and then joined Gen. Longstreet in his movement against Knoxville. It was mounted in December 1863, and spent the winter of 1863-64 guarding the front and in recruiting. In the spring advanced into Virginia and fought at Piedmont. It was at Lynchburg, Williamsport, and along the Potomac and the Shenandoah Rivers, and was engaged in western Virginia when the news of Gen. Lee's surrender was received. The regiment resolved to join Johnston, and accordingly rendezvoused at Charlotte, but finally surrendered with Vaughn's brigade. REFERENCES: DORN II#1033 "The 60th Tenn. before Vicksburg until their capture, May 17, 1863 17-51." COULTER 465 "Wash gives a mild account of his sufferings in the Federal prison and is very considerate in his comments on the enemy. He describes the ravages of war along the Mississippi, and there are some intimate observations on the people of southwestern Virginia among whom he visited before he was arrested." ; NEVINS I pg. 205 "An outstanding account based on a diary; temperate and well written.".…
