The writer's record begins with the day on which his regiment entered Virginia, June 22, 1861, and ends on January 1, 1864. He does not undertake to present a history of the organizations with which he was connected, nor does he attempt to describe the operations of armies. His record consists merely of matters which came under his own observation, and of camp gossip, rumors, trifling incidents, idle speculations, and the numberless items, small and great, which, in one way and another, enter into and affect the life of a soldier.

Excerpt from The Citizen-Soldier: Or Memoirs of a Volunteer Provisions outside of camp are very scarce. I took breakfast with a farmer this morning, and can say truly that I have eaten much better meals in my life. We had coffee without sugar, short-cake without but ter, and a little salt pork, exceedingly fat. I asked him what the charge was, and he said Ninepence, which means one shilling. I rejoiced his old soul by giving him two shillings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
