Description

Military authority, British Field Marshal Garnet Joseph Wolseley, recommended Warren Goss's memoir for reading by military leaders.Goss fought in nearly every major battle from 1st Bull Run beyond the fall of Richmond. He was preparing for another battle when one of Sheridan's staff rode up waving his hat and shouting that Lee had surrendered. He writes:"The Army of the Potomac was the people in arms. It mirrored the diversified opinions and occupations of a free and intelligent democracy. The force that called it together was the spirit that made a government of the people possible."From a perspective of 25 years after the guns had silenced, Goss weaves a compelling tale, full of detail, still feeling the pain of sorrow, but also laced with a great deal of humor."Here, take your shooting-iron, and march me to the Yankee army. I'm done with this doggoned Confedercy, I am!" On the way into our lines my informant inquired why he had gone back on the Confederacy. "Well, stranger, the rich men made this war, and we poor men have to do the fighting, and there's too much fight, I reckon, for my health. I've been fighting ever since this blamed war began, and I can't see no end to it!"Possessed of an education and an ability to write, Goss' private's tale is one of the best low-rank memoirs of his generation.
