Provides a treasure-trove of information about a single Union regiment. It details the regiment's formation in the midst of the draft riots of 1863 and its three major campaigns under General Sherman. Based on original source material it vividly describes the experiences of the soldiers in a regiment that lost 25% of its recruits to desertion even before leaving New Jersey, and then effectively walked from Chattanooga to Washington, D.C., by way of Atlanta and Savannah.
