Book Description: The 14th South Carolina Infantry Regiment, considered by some to be the best regiment in A.P. Hill's famous Light Division, served honorably and ably with the Army of Northern Virginia in all of its major battles. The 14th was organized in July, 1861, at Lightwoodknot Springs, near Columbia, South Carolina. In October the unit moved to the South Carolina coast near Pocotaligo, and on January 1, 1862, it was under fire from Federal gunboats. Ordered to Virginia in April, the 14th was assigned to General Gregg's and McGowan's Brigade. The regiment fought throughout the war as a part of Gregg's Brigade. On April 9, 1865, the 14th Infantry Regiment surrendered at the Appomattox Court House in Virginia.
