Description:
NY: Harper, 1863. War Dated. HB. G+. Some staining, book was evidently used in the field. It must have been gifted after the War by Richardson to the Canandaigua Library, where a bookplate was added./No Jacket.. [Attribution/Manual] Believe this book's content to be not too dissimilar to other books with like title. Butterfield was credited with introducing "Taps" into service use, which may be a myth as it could have been an earlier Irish pub melody. Butterfield earned the Medal of Honor at Gaines Mill in 1862. Not in Nevins. Attribution to Major Charles A. Richardson of the 126th New York Infantry. He enlisted on 9/10/1862 in Canandaigua, NY as a first lieutenant. He was captured at Harper's Ferry during the Antietam Campaign but immediately paroled. He was wounded at Gettysburg and again at Petersburg on 6/16/1864. The latter wound caused his discharge on 9/3/1864. His unit is one of Fox's Fighting 300.

HE HAS SIGNED IT ON THE FFEP!!!. The narrative is OK but the real value of the book is the signature of Shelby Foote. He was the noted commentator on Ken Burn's great Civil War series on PBS. Foote also authored the highly readable and entertaining Civil War trilogy which has undergone multiple printings.

Urbana, IL: University of Illinois, 1996. First. Hard Cover. VG+/The glare in the photo is a reflection of the Broadart protective sleeve. The jacket is in VG+ condition.. This book had a short life among Civil War book collectors. It could not compete with Tom Broadfoot's price guide. However, it has value. There are approximately 1,100 books reviewed with a short narrative on each. There are books found in Eicher that are not in Broadfoot. Gary Gallagher has written an excellent narrative on Civil War literature that is found in this book. I think Eicher should be used more like a Nevins with book information and not a price guide like Broadfoot.
