Excerpt from A History of the Eighth Regiment of New Hampshire Volunteers: Including Its Service as Infantry, Second N. H. Cavalry, and Veteran Battallion in the Civil War of 1861 1865, Covering a Period of Three Years, Ten Months, and Nineteen Days We are much indebted to those who, it Will be readily seen, have furnished valuable matter through diaries and letters. Without it the book could not have been written. More might have been sent forward, but the compiler has spared no pains to get what has been written, and it is enough to give a history of our organization. If we had waited we should have lost some part which we have gained. It is time that the history was written', for the comrades are fast passing away. Within the last two years four prominent members have died, and at this writ ing one whom we can least spare lies almost helpless between the two worlds.

Excerpt from History of the Forty-Eighth Ohio Vet; Vol; Inf: Giving a Complete Account of the Regiment From Its Organization at Camp Dennison, O., In October, 1861, to the Close of the War, and Its Final Musterout, May 10, 1866; Including All Marches, Camps, Battles, Battle-Seenes, Skirmishes, Sieges, Bivouaes, Pic Our object, in writing the History of the Forty-eighth Ohio, was to preserve the record of a Regiment whose services, extending over a period of nearly five years, had gained for it the reputation of having done its whole duty, whether in camp, on the march, or in the trying hour of battle, as attested by its Brigade and Division Commanders. We began arranging and compiling the material, consisting of our old army letters, diaries, company record, official reports, etc. etc., in 1870, and had it ready for the press in 1873; but owing to various causes we have delayed its publication until the present time. We were both present with the Regiment, from the time we joined it at Camp Dennison, in October, 1861, until one made his escape from prison, in August, 1864, and the other, until mustered out in January, 1865; therefore we were eye-witnesses to, and participated in, the varied events narrated.

The history of the 24th Infantry regiment in Korea is a difficult one, both for the veterans of the unit & for the Army. This book tells both what happened to the 24th Infantry, & why it happened. The Army must be aware of the corrosive effects of segregation & the racial prejudices that accompanied it. The consequences of the system crippled the trust & mutual confidence so necessary among the soldiers & leaders of combat units & weakened the bonds that held the 24th together, producing profound effects on the battlefield. Tables, maps & illustrations.
