When the 107th New York Volunteer Infantry arrived in Washington, D.C. in August 1862, President Lincoln personally honored them with a regimental banner. It was kept by Secretary of State William Seward and never saw a battlefield--the 107th Volunteers saw many. This book presents a day-to-day chronicle of the regiment's actions during the Civil War, from Antietam to Chancellorsville to Gettysburg to their deadliest fight at New Hope Church. At the Siege of Atlanta, where citizens dug furnished caves to escape the shelling, the 107th took fire from determined rebel snipers and were among the first troops to enter the city.
This is a new release of the original 1939 edition.
Relating a variety of rarely told stories, this overview explores the brand names that supplied food, medicine, clothing, and weapons during the Civil War from the perspective of the producers. From du Pont’s gunpowder and Brooks Brothers’ uniforms to Procter & Gamble’s soap and Borden’s condensed milk, each company and product are investigated in detail. This study also touches upon how combat affected the companies, with each firm telling a tale that mirrors the war itself: family and friendships torn asunder, political intrigue, pitched battles, and paths crossed with the book’s namesake, Abraham Lincoln.
Examines Abraham Lincoln's relationship with the press, arguing that he used such intimidation and manipulation techniques as closing down dissenting newspapers, pampering favoring newspaper men, and physically moving official telegraph lines.
