Hardback. Etat : Very Good. A facsimile reprint Very Good; A facsimile limited Edition reprint by Morningside House - 1 of 750 (1984) of the G. P. Putnam's Sons 1896 Edition. VERY GOOD condition with no dust jacket as issued. No marks noted in text. Binding is tight and square. xvii, 900 pages : illustrations, maps (some folded)… ; 24 cm. . . . . . A detailed unit history that traces the organization, campaigns, and command changes of the Fifth Corps from its origins in 1861 through Appomattox. Originally published in 1896 and reissued in a high-quality facsimile by Morningside Bookshop in 1984, the volume offers an almost day-by-day narrative built from official reports, correspondence, and personal observations, giving particular attention to the corps? role in major battles such as the Peninsula Campaign, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, the Wilderness, and Petersburg. Powell, a veteran of the corps, writes with a precise, documentary style that balances operational detail - march routes, orders of battle, casualty figures - with clear explanations of how decisions at corps and army level played out on the firing line. The Morningside edition preserves the full text and extensive appendices of the original, including orders of battle, statistical summaries, biographical sketches, and a thorough index, making it especially useful for researchers, genealogists, and serious Civil War students. This thick, roughly 900-page hardcover reprint is widely regarded as one of the standard reference works on the Fifth Corps, frequently cited in modern studies of the Army of the Potomac and in National Park Service and scholarly bibliographies of Union unit histories.

Hardcover. Etat : Good. xv, [1], 333, [3] pages. Endpaper maps. Footnotes. Illustrations. Muster Rolls, Index. Volume is somewhat cocked. No dust jacket present. The publisher added introduction, footnotes, index and photos. It was assigned to the Army of the Potomac, they were drilled and trained in Alexandria. Where it became…noted for its excellency in training and appearance, to the point, when McClellan said to Colonel McLane "Colonel, I congratulate you on having one of the very best regiments in the army!" Amos Judson served in the 83rd as a company commander, maintained a humorous, often self-deprecatory attitude through much of the narrative, but it is plain that he brought to his task more than ordinary capabilities including a sound background in historical reading. The author not only was in the midst of things in the theater of war but he also had a hand in the raising of troops to fill up depleted ranks. One of the outstanding features of this narrative is the author's comments on the physical and mental qualities that make the best soldier and other subjects that are not usually found in regimental histories. John J. Pullen (1914-2003) was a noted military history author and journalist. Best known for his 1957 book, The Twentieth Maine: A Volunteer Regiment in the Civil War, his writing helped renew popular interest in the Civil War. A veteran himself, Pullen served as a field artillery captain during World War II. The 83rd Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment also nicknamed the "Pennsylvania Mud Turtles" was a volunteer infantry regiment in the Union Army during the American Civil War, first organized at Erie in September, 1861. The 83rd participated in almost every major battle in the East, including Seven Days Battles, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Petersburg and Appomattox Court House. The Erie Regiment, commanded by Col. John W. McLane, serving for three months' service, was just disbanded when the news of the defeat of the First Battle of Bull Run, triggering a sense of shock, due to the unexpected defeat when they widely anticipated a quick and easy victory. On July 24, 1861, McLane was given authority to raise a three years' service from the Secretary of War, Simon Cameron, when recruitment began, over 1,000 joined the regiment in less than a week, including 300 who previously served in the Erie Regiment. The companies of this regiment was mainly recruited from the counties of Erie, Crawford, Warren, Venago and Mercer. The men rendezvoused at Camp McLane, where it was mustered into service on September 8, 1861. Battle of Gaines' Mill: During the battle, the regiment took position on the extreme left of the Union line, and while waiting for the Confederate attack, logs were hastily thrown up to act as breastworks, which likely rendered the position as impregnable. During the early day of June 27, Company A, under the command of Captain Sigler, who was deployed as skirmishers, was replaced by Company B, under Captain Morris, who was later severely wounded and taken to the rear. In the subsequent engagement, the Confederates drove the 83rd's skirmishers back when the 83rd opened a volley, with Union artillery batteries positioned in higher ground, subsequently firing, which stopped the Confederate advance for some time, before rallying to continue their attack. During the Confederate advance, the Confederate color bearers were repeatedly shot, leading other Confederate soldiers to continue carrying the colors, as the Confederates struggled to advance. The Confederates attacked the Union line twice but were driven out. But on the right flank, the Confederates were more successful and began advancing in full force, using the forest to discreetly advance. Before the Union troops realized what had happened, the Confederates managed to move into the 3rd Brigade's side and rear of the 83rd Pennsylvania. The regiment quickly pivoted its line to a right angle, to confront the Confederate flanking maneuver, taking minimal casualties due.
