About This Item
E-207: Ross & Haines. Very Good. 1963. Hardcover. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by Ross & Haines, Minneapolis, MN. 1963. V, 238 pp. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. The First Volunteers takes an in-depth look at the Minnesota's famed First Volunteer Regiment from 1861 to 1865 with a brief look at the local militia that spawned it. This is a good reference for those who want to get a beneath the surface of the Regiment that went on to become one of the most heroic in U. S. Military history. By 'heroic' I mean just that because on July 2, 1863 at Gettysburg the roughly 262 members of the unit conducted a bayonet charge against 1,500 fired up rebels. They paid dearly and the Company rosters you'll find in the book will show you their casualty rate as well as the casualty rates of other prominent battles. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 238 pages .
