Our take on the Camp, Field and Prison Life: Containing Sketches of Service in the South, and the Experience, Incidents and Observations, (Paperback)

This is a paperback reprint of W. A. Wash's first-hand Civil War memoir, combining sketches of Confederate service in the field with his account of time spent as a prisoner of war. It is a primary source, not a modern narrative history: the value is in the soldier's own observations, incidents and camp detail as recorded at the time. Readers wanting analysis or context should pair it with a scholarly campaign history; those who want the war as one man lived it get it directly here. Reprints of this kind vary in scan quality and editorial apparatus, so check which edition you are getting.
