Leander Stilwell served virtually all of the Civil War with the Illinois 61st Infantry. Every letter he wrote home was saved by his family and formed the basis of his recollections, which were here written long after he had become an accomplished attorney and judge.
Thus I found that the simplest, most detailed observations of this enlisted soldier, which often focused, naturally, on food, or the endless army requirement of keeping his long arm shiny and bright through four years of war in the field, to be beautifully and flowingly written. The war is seen only through his eyes, those of an enlisted soldier, in magnificent detail. Generalship and strategy are referred to only as they were discussed by the troops at the time. The joys, humor, and horrors are related in calm and equal terms.
