1864 1st ed 60th New York Infantry Union Civil War Gettysburg SLAVERY Railroads
The 60th-New York Volunteer Infantry was a famous Civil War Union regiment known for playing an important role in various battles including the Battle of Gettysburg. Author Richard Eddy wrote an account of the regiment and its involvement in the war; however, according to Nevins, this work is much more a “damnation of the South and slavery than a regimental history.” Other notable contents include reports on railroads and railroad lines, description of Union barracks, and of course descriptions of Chancellorsville and Gettysburg.
This specific copy was a gift from the author and contains Rev. Dr. Eddy’s inscription.
