The Story of the Regiment (Classic Reprint) by William Henry Locke Pdf

Excerpt from The Story of the Regiment The first object sought in this volume is to put on permanent record the deeds of a brave and noble regi ment - em effort that will be fully appreciated by its numerous friends. The author also designs that it should be a contribution to the general history of the war. To secure such a history, the story of each sep arate regiment must first be known. The duties of the writer did not require him to carry either sword or musket, and the story he here tells is made up from a note-book never absent from him, whether in camp or on the march. When the original record - sometimes made during a halt along the road side, and sometimes in the midst of battle - better tells the story, that record is inserted, day and date.

The Story of the Highland Regiments (Classic Reprint) by Frederick Watson Pdf

Excerpt from The Story of the Highland Regiments Whatever may be the faults Of this book there are pictures, and there are not many dates. I have also, where I could, allowed the actual combatants or eye-witnesses to tell their story in their own way, and on occasions I have inserted verses that have either won popularity or deserve to do so. It is also my hope that, despite the simplicity Of treatment, this story Of the campaigns in which the Highland regiments took their part, will interest not only young people, but, for the sentiment Of all things Scottish, their elders too.

History One Hundred and Eleventh Regiment by W. S. Thurstin Pdf

Excerpt from History One Hundred and Eleventh Regiment: Regiment O. V. I Comrades: - At the first meeting of the surviving members of the 111th O. V. I. in 1878, held at Perrysburg, Ohio, the duty was assigned to me of writing the history made by our Regiment during the War of the Great Rebellion. Colonel Brailey requested me to make my history of the regiment, as entertaining to the survivors, as truth would permit, and continue to give my readings at annual reunions of the regiment, as one of the chief features of the contemplated entertainments. The purpose in the beginning, was not to write a history for publication; and what I have written commemorative of the part which the members of my regiment bore, to work performed by the grand armies in the field, was not designed upon the lines of historical severity, in the treatment of the subject matter, but rather in the lighter vein of enjoyable reminiscenses of army life.

A Highland Regiment (Classic Reprint) by E. A. Mackintosh Pdf

Excerpt from A Highland Regiment O A Private Soldier The air is still, the light winds blow Too quietly to wake you now. Dreamer, you dream too well to know Whose hand set death upon your brow. The shrinking flesh the bullets tore Will never pulse with fear again; Sleep on, remembering no more Your sudden agony of pain. Oh, poor brave smiling face made naught, Turned back to dust from whence you came, You have forgot the men you fought, The wounds that burnt you like a flame; With stiff hand crumbling a clod, And blind eyes staring at the sky, The awful evidence of God Against the men who made you die.

The Story of the British Army (Classic Reprint) by Charles Cooper King Pdf

Excerpt from The Story of the British Army I have endeavoured in the space at my disposal to Show how the British Army has grown up. I have tried merely to tell a story, and therefore omitted much that might have been said regarding the noble work the Queen's Army h'as done. As regards the opinions advanced, I have always, as far as possible, given the reasons for my views and the authorities which induced me to form them. I have adhered to the principle of using the old regi mental numbers, for the sake of continuity; though, after the date when these were altered, I have, in most cases, added their present territorial titles.

The Story of the Thirty Eighth Regiment by George W. Powers Pdf

Excerpt from The Story of the Thirty Eighth Regiment: Of Massachusetts Volunteers IN the following pages, an attempt has been made to present a connected and reliable account of the movements of the Thirty Eighth Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteers during its term of service in the army of the United States. It has not been the purpose of the writer to describe the movements of armies, or chronicle the results of campaigns, except to illustrate more fully the doings of the regiment. Even in the record of battles, he has rather endeavored to confine himself to the particular part taken by the regiment, than to any more extended view; and has preferred to give more prominence to those smaller. Matters peculiar to its experience. Nothing has been drawn from imagination, and no attempt made at word-painting. Neither has it been attempted to describe the scenery of the country, or the manners of the people, in the region where the regiment performed its service. The scope of the work would not allow of this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
