About This Item
Knoxville, TN: University of Tennessee Press, 2001. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 361 pages. Hardcover. B/w illustrations throughout. Gilt title on spine. Clean inside and out. In great shape. From the dust jacket front flap: "At the outbreak of the Civl war, Daniel Withum Sawtelle was a young man working on his family's farm in the north woods of Maine. The Republican son of a Democrat, he initially took little notice of a war he assumed would be over almost as soon as it started. As the conflict wore on, however, he began to disagree vehemently with his father about the future of the nation. Finally, in February 1862, he enlisted in the Eighth Maine Infantry. Fifty years later, Sawtelle drew on his wartime correspondence to compile a memoir of his experience." Record # 30534
