In 1861, approximately 1000 men from Massachusetts answered the call from their country and marched off to war to keep the Union together. The Twelfth Massachusetts fought in just about every major battle in the Eastern Theater of Operations against Robert E. Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia. The 12th Mass suffered more than any regiment, but continued to demonstrate their honor and bravery right up to when they were pulled off the front lines in 1864. This book details the exploits of these men who were led by two citizen soldiers, Fletcher Webster, son of Daniel Webster, was killed in his first action, way before he could show his mettle, and James L. Bates, who took up the mantle of leadership and led the regiment to glory the rest of the war.
