Brothers 'til Death The Civil War Letters of William, Thomas, and Maggie Jones, 1861-1865 : Irish Soldiers in the 48th New York Volunteer Regiment

"Brothers 'til Death offers a view of the Civil War from the perspective of the frontline soldier. It provides insights into a forgotten theater of the war, the coastal campaign of the Carolinas and Georgia, providing new witnesses to assaults on Forts Pulaski, Wagner, and Fisher. Finally, the letters give new dimensions to what life was like for Irish soldiers fighting for the Union along the coastline of the South."--BOOK JACKET.
