The Forty-Second Ohio Infantry (Classic Reprint) by Frank H. Mason PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from The Forty-Second Ohio Infantry When in 1864 and '65 the bronzed and war-worn regiments of the Union army returned from the field, reduced to half their original numbers by battle and disease, there was a feeling among the veterans and their friends that it would be a luxury to forget, amid the comforts of home, the long story of their perils and sufferings. The joy of return to home and friends, with the reflection that the army of right had triumphed and saved the Republic which Slavery would have destroyed, made the weary veteran too happy in his new comfort and freedom to care whether his own personal part in the great struggle were recorded or forgotten. The volunteers were weary with fighting and marching, the people were cloyed and oppressed with the excitement, the waste and the anxieties of war. The blessed benediction of Peace seemed for the time to rise like an obscuring mist between the war and the people who had given the flower of their youth and manhood to the struggle. In a contest in which whole armies had done so nobly, the achievements of particular regiments, companies, or individuals did not seem, either to the veterans or their friends, to demand especial record. But as the years went by, and the vast importance of the results attained by the war began to grow apparent, there arose a new interest in the minor actors in the struggle.
