This was a very interesting account of a Civil War soldier's experience. This is a compassionate man not only for the cause but for the people he was fighting for. He explains how they lived,fought and died for the union. His unit cared for the people of the South even though they were not were not always received well. He described his experiences with the the other side at times as almost friendly.

I really loved this book. I was right there in camp with Mr.Rhodes. The plainess of his writing draws you into the day to day life of a soldier and brings an understanding of why they fought.

An excelent accout of Rhodes service during the Civil War. So many details and stories. It is a must read for an history buff. I am reading as it happened 150 years ago. It makes it even more intresting.
