Hello Bob,
A very good read is The Rebel Yell & The Yankee Hurrah,the Civil War Journal of a Maine Volunteer,by private John W.Hale, 17th Maine Regiment.It follows him from the time he joins up at Camp King,Cape Elizabeth,Maine, August 1862,until he is mustered out in June 1865.If you don't already have it,I think you can still find a copy.The one I have is 1985 copyright & I found it with Barnes & Nobel in their used books.I found it very interesting as its from a privates view, which is altogether different from a generals.Good luck & happy reading. Ann
