A. + + + + +THE CIVIL WAR + + _Here brothers fought for their principles + Here heroes died to save their country + And a united people will forever cherish + the precious legacy of their noble manhood._ + + --_PENNSYLVANIA MONUMENT AT VICKSBURG_ + + +The Civil War, which began in the 1830's as a cold war and moved toward +the inevitable conflict somewhere between 1850 and 1860, was one of +America's greatest emotional experiences. When the war finally broke in +1861, beliefs and political ideals had become so firm that they +transcended family ties and bonds of friendship--brother was cast +against brother. The story of this supreme test of our Nation, though +one of tragedy, is also one of triumph, for it united a nation that had +been divided for over a quarter century. + +Holding a place in history midway between the Revolutionary War of the +18th century and the First World War of the 20th, the American Civil War +had far-reaching effects: by the many innovations and developments it +stimulated, it became the forerunner of modern warfare; by the demands +it made on technology and production, it hastened the industrial +revolution in America. This conflict also provided the ferment from +which great personalities arise. Qualities of true greatness were +revealed in men like William Tecumseh Sherman, the most brilliant +strategist of modern times; Nathan Bedford Forrest, one of the greatest +of natural born leaders; Robert E. Lee, "one of the supremely gifted men +produced by our Nation"; and Abraham Lincoln, who, like the other great +men of that era, would be minor characters in our history had they not +been called upon in this time of crisis. And emerging from such trying +times were seven future Presidents of the United States, all officers of +the Union Army. + +But the story of this sectional struggle is not only one of great +leaders and events. It is the story of 18,000 men in Gen. Sedgwick's +Corps who formed a marching column that stretched over ten miles of +road, and in that hot month of July 1863, the story of how they marched +steadily for eighteen hours, stopping only once to rest, until they +reached Gettysburg where the crucial battle was raging. It is the story +of more than two hundred young VMI Cadets, who without hesitation left +their classrooms to fight alongside hardened veterans at the battle of +New Market in 1864. Or it is the story of two brothers who followed +different flags and then met under such tragic circumstances on the +field of battle at Petersburg. + +It is also a story of the human toil and machinery that produced more +than four million small arms for the Union Army and stamped from copper +over one billion percussion caps for these weapons during the four years +of war. Inside the Confederacy, it is the story of experiments with new +weapons--the submarine, iron-clad rams, torpedoes, and landmines--in an +attempt to overcome the North's numerical superiority. + +It is the purpose of _The Civil War Centennial Handbook_ to present this +unusual story of the Civil War, a mosaic composed of fragments from the +lesser-known and yet colorful facts that have survived a century but +have been obscured by the voluminous battle narratives and campaign +studies. + +Much of this material, when originally drafted, was selected by the +National Civil War Centennial Commission for their informative and +interesting _Facts About the Civil War_. This original material, revised +and enlarged, has grown into _The Civil War Centennial Handbook_. + +The handbook is divided into five basic parts. The first is a +presentation of little-known and unusual facts about participants, +battles and losses, and the cost of war. The second is a graphic +portrayal of both the men and machines that made the war of the 1860's. +The special selection of photographs for this portion of the story were +made available through the courtesy of the National Archives and the +Library of Congress. Next are reproductions in color of Union and +Confederate uniforms from the _Official Records Atlas_ and the famous +paintings by H. A. Ogden. The fourth section is a reference table of +battles and losses listed in chronological order, accompanied by a map +showing the major engagements of the war. And primarily for the growing +number of new Civil War buffs, there is a roster of Civil War Round +Tables, as well as a recommended list of outstanding books on the Civil +War. + +The material presented in The _Civil War Centennial Handbook_ has been +selected from standard sources, the most outstanding of which are: the +_Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies and Navies_, +Moore's _Rebellion Record_, Cullum's _Biographical Register of West +Point Graduates_, Phisterer's _Statistical Record_, Livermore's _Numbers +and Losses in the Civil War_, Fox's _Regimental Losses_, the _Dictionary +of American Biography_, Dyer's _Compendium of the War of the Rebellion_, +the _Annual Reports of the Secretary of War_, and last but far from +least, one of the richest sources of information available, my fellow +members of the District of Columbia Civil War Round Table. + +[Illustration] + + + + +THE FIRST MODERN WAR + + _In the arts of life, man invents nothing; but in the arts of + death he outdoes Nature herself, and produces by chemistry and + machinery all the slaughter of plague, pestilence and famine. + + --_GEORGE BERNARD SHAW_ + + +The arts of tactics and strategy were revolutionized by the many +developments introduced during the 1860's.

Previously, as a senior +United States Senator, he had been Chairman of the Senate Military +Affairs Committee. Lincoln and Davis were born in Kentucky, the only +state that has ever had two of its sons serve as President at the same +time. + +JOHN TYLER, 10th President of the United States, was elected to the +Confederate States Congress in 1862, but died before it convened. On +March 4, 1861, Tyler's granddaughter unfurled the first flag of the +Confederacy when it was raised over the Confederate Capitol at +Montgomery, Alabama. + +The Battle of Lynchburg, Virginia, in June 1864 brought together two +future Presidents of the United States--General RUTHERFORD B. HAYES and +Major WILLIAM McKINLEY, U.S.A.--and a former Vice-President--General +JOHN C. BRECKINRIDGE, C.S.A. Five other Union generals later rose to the +Presidency: ANDREW JOHNSON, U.S. GRANT, JAMES A. GARFIELD, CHESTER A. +ARTHUR, and BENJAMIN HARRISON. + +The four Secretaries of War during the eleven years prior to the Civil +War were all from the South. All four later held office in the +Confederate government. + +Fourteen of the 26 Confederate Senators had previously served in the +United States Congress. In the Confederate House of Representatives, 33 +members were former U.S. Congressmen. + +Confederate Generals ROBERT E. LEE and P.G.T. BEAUREGARD both ranked +second in their graduating classes at West Point, and both officers +later returned to hold the position of Superintendent of the Academy. +Lee's appointment to the rank of full colonel in the United States Army +was signed by President Lincoln. + +In 1859 WILLIAM TECUMSEH SHERMAN was appointed the first president of +what is today the Louisiana State University. Although his chief claim +to fame was the destructive "March to the Sea", a portrait of the Union +general occupies a prominent place in the Memorial Tower of this +Southern university. + +Over one-fourth of the West Point graduates who fought during the Civil +War were in the Confederate Army. Half of the 304 who served in Gray +were on active duty in the United States Army when war broke out. Of the +total number of West Pointers who went South, 148 were promoted to the +rank of general officer. In all, 313 of the 1,098 officers in the United +States Army joined the Confederacy. + +One fourth of the officers in the United States Navy resigned to cast +their lot with the Confederate Navy. Of the 322 who resigned, 243 were +line officers. + +When J.E.B. STUART raided Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, in 1862, he was +pursued by Federal cavalry under the command of his father-in-law, Brig. +Gen. PHILIP ST. GEORGE COOKE, whose name is frequently confused with +that of Confederate General PHILIP ST. GEORGE COCKE, both West Pointers. +As if that weren't bad enough, there was a Union general by the name of +JEFFERSON DAVIS. + +WILLIAM T. MAGRUDER (U.S.M.A. 1850) commanded a squadron of the 1st +United States Cavalry at First Manassas and during the Peninsula +Campaign. In August 1862 he was granted leave of absence, and two months +later he switched loyalties to join the Confederate Army. On July 3, +1863, he fell during the famous charge at Gettysburg. + +The Virginia Military Institute graduated WILLIAM H. GILLESPIE in the +special war class of 1862. While awaiting his appointment as an officer +on "Stonewall" Jackson's staff, he deserted to the Union Army and became +Adjutant of the 14th West Virginia Cavalry. + +If Blue and Gray didn't meet again at Gettysburg during the annual +reunions, they at least met on the banks of the Nile. No less than 50 +former Union and Confederate officers held the rank of colonel or above +in the Army of the Khedive during the 1870's. Two ex-Confederate +generals and three former Union officers attained the rank of general in +the Egyptian Army, holding such positions as Chief of Staff, Chief of +Engineers, and Chief Ordnance Officer. + +Only three Confederates ever held the rank of general in the United +States Army following the Civil War--MATTHEW C. BUTLER, FITZHUGH LEE, +and JOE WHEELER. Lee and Wheeler, though they served as generals in the +Confederate Army as well as in the United States Army during the Spanish +American War, both graduated at the bottom of their West Point classes. +When Lee and Wheeler were promoted to major general in 1901, their +commissions were signed by a former Yankee officer--President William +McKinley. + +General GEORGE PICKETT, a native Virginian, was appointed to the United +States Military Academy from the State of Illinois. John Todd Stuart +obtained the appointment at the request of his law partner, Abraham +Lincoln. + +The senior general in the Confederate Army, SAMUEL COOPER, hailed from +New York. Before the war, he had been Adjutant General of the United +States Army. From 1861 to 1865 he was the Adjutant and Inspector General +of the Confederate Army. + +Fort Sumter was surrendered in 1861 by a Kentucky-born Union officer, +Major ROBERT ANDERSON. Confederate General JOHN C. PEMBERTON, a +Pennsylvanian by birth, surrendered Vicksburg in 1863. There was no +collusion in either surrender; both men were loyal supporters of their +respective causes. + +The first Superintendent of the United States Naval Academy, Commodore +FRANKLIN BUCHANAN, commanded the C.S.S. _Virginia_ (_Merrimac_) in its +first engagement. On the first ship to surrender under the _Virginia's_ +guns was Buchanan's brother, an officer of the U.S. Navy. + +Major CLIFTON PRENTISS of the 6th Maryland Infantry (Union) and his +younger brother WILLIAM, of the 2nd Maryland Infantry (Confederate), +were both mortally wounded when their regiments clashed at Petersburg on +April 2, 1865--just seven days before hostilities ceased. Both were +removed from the battlefield and after a separation of four years, they +were taken to the same hospital in Washington. Each fought and each died +for his cause. + + + + + THEY ALSO SERVED + + _Fame is the echo of actions, resounding them to the world, + save that the echo repeats only the last part, but fame relates + all...._ + + --_FULLER_ + + +Poet SIDNEY LANIER fought as a private in the 2nd Georgia Battalion +during the Seven Days' Battles near Richmond. In November 1862 he was +captured on a Confederate blockade-runner and imprisoned at Point +Lookout, Maryland. Sixteen years after the war he died from tuberculosis +contracted while in prison. + +New England poet ALBERT PIKE commanded the Confederate Department of +Indian Territory. He wrote the stanzas of the popular Southern version +of _Dixie_, a tune which originated not in the South, but in New York +City during the 1850's. + +At the battle of the Monocacy in 1864 Union General LEW WALLACE, author +of _Ben-Hur_, commanded the force defending Washington against General +Jubal Early's attack. After the war he served as Governor of New Mexico +and Minister to Turkey. + +When the Marion Rangers organized in 1861, SAMUEL CLEMENS (Mark Twain) +joined as a lieutenant, but he left this Missouri Company before it was +mustered into Confederate service, having fired only one hostile shot +during the war. + +Confederate Private HENRY MORTON STANLEY, of "Doctor Livingstone, I +presume" fame, survived a bloody charge at Shiloh only to be taken +prisoner. Later he joined the Union ranks and finished the war in Yankee +blue. + +ANDREW CARNEGIE was a young man in his mid-twenties when he left his +position as superintendent of the Pittsburgh Division, Pennsylvania +Railroad to pitch in with workers rebuilding the rail line from +Annapolis to Washington. Later in 1861 he was given the position of +superintendent of military railways and government telegraph. + +HENRY A. DUPONT, grandson of the DuPont industries founder, was awarded +the Congressional Medal of Honor for gallantry at the battle of Cedar +Creek in October 1864. Captain DuPont, who had graduated from West Point +at the head of his class in 1861, went on to serve as United States +Senator from Delaware. + +ELIAS HOWE presented each field and staff officer of the 5th +Massachusetts Regiment with a stallion fully equipped for service. +Later, he volunteered as a private, and when the State failed to pay his +unit, he met the regimental payroll with his own money. + +At the age of 15 GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE ran away from home and joined the +Union Army. Neither he nor Elias Howe rose to officer rank, but both are +today in the Hall of Fame for their achievements--the air brake and the +sewing machine. + +In 1861 CORNELIUS VANDERBILT presented a high-speed side-wheel steamer +to the United States Navy. At the time, there were less than 50 ships in +active naval service. The cruiser, named the _Vanderbilt_, captured +three blockade-runners during the war and in 1865 participated in the +bombardment and amphibious assault on Fort Fisher. The Federal Navy at +that time had grown to a fleet of more than 550 steam-powered ships. + +Admiral GEORGE DEWEY, of Manila Bay fame, served as a young lieutenant +under Admiral Farragut during the attack on Port Hudson in 1863. His +ship was the only one lost in the engagement. + +Colonel CHRISTOPHER C. ("Kit") CARSON commanded the 1st New Mexico +Volunteers (Union), and campaigned against the Comanche, Navajo, and +Apache Indians during the Civil War. In 1866 he was promoted to +brigadier general. + +In his mid-teens JESSE JAMES joined the Confederate raiders led by +William Quantrill. The famous "Dead or alive" reward for Jesse in 1882 +was issued by an ex-Confederate officer, Governor Thomas T. Crittenden +of Missouri. + +[Illustration] + + + + +THE SOLDIER, THE BATTLE, THE LOSSES + + _"There's many a boy here today who looks on war as all glory, + but, boys, it is all hell."_ + + + --_WILLIAM TECUMSEH SHERMAN_ + + +Of the 2.3 million men enlisted in the Union Army, seventy per cent were +under 23 years of age. Approximately 100,000 were 16 and an equal number +15. Three hundred lads were 13 or less, and the records show that there +were 25 no older than 10 years. + +The average infantry regiment of 10 companies consisted of 30 line +officers and 1300 men. However, by the time a new regiment reached the +battlefield, it would often have less than 800 men available for combat +duty. Sickness and details as cooks, teamsters, servants, and clerks +accounted for the greatly reduced numbers. Actually, in many of the +large battles the regimental fighting strength averaged no more than 480 +men. + +In 1864 the basic daily ration for a Union soldier was (in ounces): +20--beef, 18--flour, 2.56--dry beans, 1.6--green coffee, 2.4--sugar, +.64--salt, and smaller amounts of pepper, yeast powder, soap, candles, +and vinegar. While campaigning, soldiers seldom obtained their full +ration and many had to forage for subsistence. + +In the Army of Northern Virginia in 1863 the rations available for every +100 Confederate soldiers over a 30-day period consisted of 1/4 lb. of +bacon, 18 oz. of flour, 10 lbs. of rice, and a small amount of peas and +dried fruit--when they could be obtained. (It is little wonder that Lee +elected to carry the war into Pennsylvania--if for no other reason than +to obtain food for an undernourished army.) + +During the Shenandoah Valley campaign of 1862 "Stonewall" Jackson +marched his force of 16,000 men more than 600 miles in 35 days. Five +major battles were fought and four separate Union armies, totaling +63,000, were defeated. + +In June 1864, the U.S.S. _Kearsarge_ sank the C.S.S. _Alabama_ in a +fierce engagement in the English Channel off Cherbourg, France. +Frenchmen gathered along the beach to witness the hour-long duel, which +inspired a young French artist, Edouard Manet, to paint the battle scene +that now hangs in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. + +The Confederate cruiser _Shenandoah_ sailed completely around the world +raiding Union commerce vessels and whalers. The ship and crew +surrendered to British authorities at Liverpool in November 1865, seven +months after Lee's surrender at Appomattox. + +The greatest naval bombardment during the war was on Christmas Eve, +1864, at Fort Fisher, North Carolina. Fifty-seven vessels, with a total +of 670 guns, were engaged--the largest fleet ever assembled by the U.S. +Navy up to that time. The Army, Navy, and Marines combined in a joint +operation to reduce and capture the fort. + +In July, 1862 the first Negro troops of the Civil War were organized by +General David Hunter. Known as the 1st South Carolina Regiment, they +were later designated the 33rd Regiment United States Colored Troops. +Some 186,000 Negro soldiers served in the Union Army, 4,300 of whom +became battle casualties. + +At the battle of Fredericksburg in 1862, the line of Confederate +trenches extended a distance of seven miles. The troop density in these +defensive works was 11,000 per mile. + +Over 900 guns and mortars bristled from the 68 forts defending the +Nation's Capital during the war. The fortifications, constructed by the +Engineer Corps during the early part of the war, circled the city on a +37-mile perimeter. + +During Sherman's campaign from Chattanooga to Atlanta, the Union Army of +the Tennessee, in a period of four months, constructed over 300 miles of +rifle pits, fired 149,670 artillery rounds and 22,137,132 rounds of +small-arms ammunition. + +To fire a Civil War musket, eleven separate motions had to be made. The +regulation in the 1860's specified that a soldier should fire three +aimed shots per minute, allowing 20 seconds per shot and less than two +seconds per motion. + +At the battle of Stone's River, Tennessee, in January, 1863, the Federal +infantry in three days exhausted over 2,000,000 rounds of ammunition, +and the artillery fired 20,307 rounds. The total weight of the +projectiles was in excess of 375,000 pounds. + +At the Battle of First Bull Run or Manassas, it has been estimated that +between 8,000 and 10,000 bullets were fired for every man killed and +wounded. + +The campaign against Petersburg, the longest sustained operation of the +war, began in the summer of 1864 and lasted for 10 months, until the +spring of '65. The fighting covered an area of more than 170 square +miles, with 35 miles of trenches and fortifications stretching from +Richmond to the southwest of Petersburg. During September, 1864, nearly +175 field and siege guns poured forth a daily average of 7.8 tons of +iron on the Confederate works. + +The greatest cavalry battle in the history of the western hemisphere was +fought at Brandy Station, Virginia, on June 9, 1863. Nearly 20,000 +cavalrymen were engaged for more than 12 hours. At the height of the +battle, along Fleetwood Hill, charges and countercharges were made +continuously for almost three hours. + +The greatest regimental loss of the entire war was borne by the 1st +Maine Heavy Artillery. The unit saw no action until 1864, but in the +short span of less than one year, over half of its 2,202 men engaged in +battle were hit. In the assault on Petersburg in June, 1864, the +regiment lost 604 men killed and wounded in less than 20 minutes. + +The largest regimental loss in a single battle was suffered by the 26th +North Carolina Infantry at Gettysburg. The regiment went into battle +with a little over 800 men, and by the end of the third day, 708 were +dead, wounded, or missing. In one company of 84, every officer and man +was hit. + +Of the 46 Confederate regiments that went into the famous charge at +Gettysburg on July 3, 1863, 15 were commanded by General Pickett. +Thirteen of his regiments were led by Virginia Military Institute +graduates; only two of them survived the charge. + +The heaviest numerical loss during any single battle was at Gettysburg, +where 40,322 Americans were killed or wounded. On the Union side 21 per +cent of those engaged were killed or wounded, in the Confederate ranks +30 per cent--the largest percentage of Confederates hit in any battle. +The largest percentage of Union soldiers hit in battle was at Port +Hudson in May 1863, where 26.7 per cent of those engaged were killed or +wounded. + +During May and June 1864 the Armies of the Potomac and the James lost +77,452 men--a greater number than Lee had in his entire army. + +Union Army hospitals treated over 6 million cases during the war. There +were twice as many deaths from disease as from hostile bullets. Diarrhea +and dysentery alone took the lives of 44,558 Union soldiers. + +From 1861-1865 the Quartermaster Corps of the Union Army made 116,148 +burials. + +In the 79 National Civil War cemeteries, 54 per cent of the graves are +those of unknown soldiers. The largest Civil War cemetery is at +Vicksburg, where 16,000 soldiers rest; only 3,896 are known. At the +Confederate prison site in Salisbury, North Carolina, where 12,126 Union +soldiers are buried, 99 per cent are unknown. + +[Illustration] + + + + +THE COST OF WAR + + _Nor deem the irrevocable Past + As wholly wasted, wholly vain, + If, rising on its wrecks, at last + To something nobler we attain._ + + --_HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW_ + + +From 1861-1865 it cost the United States Government approximately 2 +million dollars a day to prosecute the war; the Second World War cost +more than 113 million dollars a day. + +In 1880 the Secretary of the Treasury reported that the Civil War had +cost the Federal Government 6.19 billion dollars. By 1910 the cost of +the war, including pensions and other veterans benefits, had reached +11.5 billion dollars. World War II was three months shorter than the +Civil War, but from 1942-1945 approximately 156 billion dollars was +spent on the military establishment. + +The total cost of the war to the South has been estimated at 4 billion +dollars. + +The public debt outstanding for an average population of 33 million rose +from $2.80 to $75 per capita between 1861 and 1865. In mid-1958 the per +capita debt stood at $1,493 for a population of 175.5 million. + +In 1958 the government was providing pensions for 3,042 widows of Union +veterans. In June of that year, as a result of special legislation, 526 +widows of Southern soldiers and the two surviving Confederate veterans +became eligible for Federal pensions. The last Union veteran, Albert +Woolson, had died in 1956, leaving the two Confederates, John Salling +and Walter Williams, to draw the highest Civil War pensions paid by the +United States Government. The last Civil War veteran, Walter Williams, +died in December 1959 at the age of 117. Since then, William's claim as +a veteran has been disputed in the newspapers, but sufficient evidence +does not exist to positively prove or disprove his military status. + +The pursuit and capture of Jefferson Davis at Irwinville, Georgia, cost +the Federal Government $97,031.62. + +From 1861-1865 it cost the Federal government, in millions of dollars: + + $727--to clothe and feed the Army + 18--to clothe and feed the Navy + 339--for transportation of troops and supplies + 127--for cavalry and artillery horses + 76--for the purchase of arms + 8--to maintain and provide for Confederate prisoners + +Soldiers and sailors of the United States received 1.34 billion dollars +in pay during the war. + +In 1861 an infantry private was paid $13 per month--compared to a +private's pay of $83 today. A Civil War colonel drew $95 per month and a +brigadier general $124. Their counterparts today are paid a monthly base +rate of $592 and $800. + +During the 1860's the average cost of a musket was $13 as compared to +$105 for an M1 Garand in World War II. + +[Illustration] + + +NUMBERS AND LOSSES + + North South[1] + Population 22,400,000 9,103,000[2] + Military Age Group (18-45) 4,600,000 985,000 + Trained Militia 1827-1861 2,470,000 692,000 + Regular Army January, 1861 16,400 0 + Military Potential 1861 2,486,400 692,000 + Total Individuals in Service 1861-1865 2,213,400 1,003,600 + + Total Strength July, 1861 219,400 114,000 + Total Strength January, 1863 962,300 450,200 + Peak Strength 1864-1865 1,044,660 484,800 + Army 980,100 481,200 + Navy 60,700 3,000 + Marines 3,860 600 + + Total Hit in Battle 385,100 320,000 + Total Battle Deaths 110,100 94,000 + Killed in Battle 67,100 54,000 + Died of Wounds 43,000 40,000 + Wounded (not mortally)[3] 275,000 226,000 + Missing in Action 6,750 --- + Captured[4] 211,400 462,000 + Died in Prison 30,200 26,000 + Died of Disease 224,000 60,000 + Other Deaths 34,800 --- + Desertions[5] 199,000 83,400 + Discharged 426,500 57,800 + Surrendered 1865 174,223 + +[Footnote 1: Confederate figures are based upon the best information and +estimates available.] + +[Footnote 2: Includes 3,760,000 slaves in the seceded states.] + +[Footnote 3: A number of these were returned to duty.

But like all truly great +tragedies, it carries with it an enduring lesson and a profound +inspiration. It was a demonstration of heroism and sacrifice by men and +women of both sides, who valued principle above life itself and whose +devotion to duty is a proud part of our national inheritance. + +Both sections of our magnificently reunited country sent into their +armies men who became soldiers as good as any who ever fought under any +flag. Military history records nothing finer than the courage and spirit +displayed at such battles as Chickamauga, Antietam, Kenesaw Mountain and +Gettysburg. That America could produce men so valiant and so enduring is +a matter for deep and abiding pride. + +The same spirit on the part of the people back home supported those +soldiers through four years of great trial. That a Nation which +contained hardly more than 30 million people, North and South together, +could sustain 600,000 deaths without faltering is a lasting testimonial +to something unconquerable in the American spirit. And that a +transcending sense of unity and larger common purpose could, in the end, +cause the men and women who had suffered so greatly to close ranks once +the contest ended and to go on together to build a greater, freer and +happier America must be a source of inspiration as long as our country +may last. + +By a joint resolution approved on September 7, 1957, the Congress +established the Civil War Centennial Commission to coordinate the +nationwide observances of the one hundredth anniversary of the Civil +War. This resolution authorized and requested the President to issue +proclamations inviting the people of the United States to participate in +those observances. + +NOW THEREFORE, I, DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER, President of the United States +of America, do hereby invite all of the people of our country to take a +direct and active part in the Centennial of the Civil War. + +I request all units and agencies of government, Federal, State and +local, and their officials, to encourage, foster and participate in +Centennial observances. And I especially urge our Nation's schools and +colleges, its libraries and museums, its churches and religious bodies, +its civic, service and patriotic organizations, its learned and +professional societies, its arts, sciences and industries, and its +informational media, to plan and carry out their own appropriate +Centennial observances during the years 1961 to 1965; all to the end of +enriching our knowledge and appreciation of this great chapter in our +Nation's history and of making this memorable period truly a Centennial +for all Americans. + +IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of +the United States of America to be affixed. + + DONE at the City of Washington this 6th day of December in the + year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty, and of the + Independence of the United States of America the one hundred + and eighty-fourth. + + By the President: + + Dwight D. Eisenhower + + +ABOUT THE AUTHOR + +William H. Price is a pursuer of the lesser-known, but important, facts +about the Civil War; an interest that is reflected throughout this +unique handbook. Living in Northern Virginia, he has been over many +square miles of the battlefields on foot and, often with a surveyor's +transit, has plotted key sites and troop positions left obscure in the +records of the armies. He specializes in the smaller, yet significant +battles fought in Virginia--First Manassas, Cedar Mountain, Brandy +Station--and in the operations of the signals services and topographical +engineers. Modern data-processing techniques were applied to the Civil +War for the first time when he devised a new method of cataloguing the +war's battles, skirmishes, and engagements; this compilation, prepared +by International Business Machines Corporation, is being used by the +National and State Commissions in planning the numerous Civil War +Centennial events. + +Virgil Carrington Jones, biographer of Ranger Mosby and author of "The +Civil War at Sea", has best and most accurately described Mr. Price as +"a walking encyclopedia of Civil War lore". + +A native of North Carolina, he has served on the staff of the American +Military Institute and is a member of the Civil War Centennial +Commission of the District of Columbia. + + + * * * * * + +Transcriber's Notes: + +Research indicates that the copyright was not renewed. + +Page 18: Corrected Gary to Gray "Gray and Blue CWRT" + +Page 19: Changed WISCONSIN (1) to WISCONSIN (2) + +Page 20: Changed Shenanhoah to Shenandoah + +Page 27: Changed 1960s to 1860s "for the Shamrock Regiment of the +1860's" + +Page 32: Corrected spelling of "wariors" to "warriors" + +Page 67: Abbreviated dates to narrow the table + +Page 71: Corrected spelling of "Irrepressable" to "Irrepressible +Conflict" + +Text uses both ironclad and iron-clad + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The Civil War Centennial Handbook, by +William H.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements.

To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5.

When the war finally broke in +1861, beliefs and political ideals had become so firm that +they transcended family ties and bonds of friendship—brother +was cast against brother. The story of this +supreme test of our Nation, though one of tragedy, is +also one of triumph, for it united a nation that had been +divided for over a quarter century.</p> + +<p>Holding a place in history midway between the Revolutionary +War of the 18th century and the First World +War of the 20th, the American Civil War had far-reaching +effects: by the many innovations and developments it +stimulated, it became the forerunner of modern warfare; +by the demands it made on technology and production, +it hastened the industrial revolution in America. +This conflict also provided the ferment from which great +personalities arise. Qualities of true greatness were +revealed in men like William Tecumseh Sherman, the +most brilliant strategist of modern times; Nathan Bedford +Forrest, one of the greatest of natural born leaders; +Robert E. Lee, "one of the supremely gifted men produced +by our Nation"; and Abraham Lincoln, who, like +the other great men of that era, would be minor characters +in our history had they not been called upon in +this time of crisis. And emerging from such trying times +were seven future Presidents of the United States, all +officers of the Union Army.</p> + +<p>But the story of this sectional struggle is not only +one of great leaders and events. It is the story of 18,000<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_3" id="Page_3">[3]</a></span> +men in Gen. Sedgwick's Corps who formed a marching +column that stretched over ten miles of road, and in that +hot month of July 1863, the story of how they marched +steadily for eighteen hours, stopping only once to rest, +until they reached Gettysburg where the crucial battle +was raging. It is the story of more than two hundred +young VMI Cadets, who without hesitation left their classrooms +to fight alongside hardened veterans at the battle +of New Market in 1864. Or it is the story of two brothers +who followed different flags and then met under such +tragic circumstances on the field of battle at Petersburg.</p> + +<p>It is also a story of the human toil and machinery +that produced more than four million small arms for the +Union Army and stamped from copper over one billion +percussion caps for these weapons during the four years +of war. Inside the Confederacy, it is the story of experiments +with new weapons—the submarine, iron-clad +rams, torpedoes, and landmines—in an attempt to overcome +the North's numerical superiority.</p> + +<p>It is the purpose of <i>The Civil War Centennial Handbook</i> to +present this unusual story of the Civil War, a mosaic +composed of fragments from the lesser-known and yet +colorful facts that have survived a century but have been +obscured by the voluminous battle narratives and campaign +studies.</p> + +<p>Much of this material, when originally drafted, was +selected by the National Civil War Centennial Commission +for their informative and interesting <i>Facts About +the Civil War</i>. This original material, revised and enlarged, +has grown into <i>The Civil War Centennial Handbook</i>.</p> + +<p>The handbook is divided into five basic parts. The +first is a presentation of little-known and unusual facts +about participants, battles and losses, and the cost of +war. The second is a graphic portrayal of both the men +and machines that made the war of the 1860's. The special +selection of photographs for this portion of the story +were made available through the courtesy of the National +Archives and the Library of Congress. Next are reproductions +in color of Union and Confederate uniforms from +the <i>Official Records Atlas</i> and the famous paintings by +H. A. Ogden. The fourth section is a reference table of<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">[4]</a></span> +battles and losses listed in chronological order, accompanied +by a map showing the major engagements of the +war. And primarily for the growing number of new Civil +War buffs, there is a roster of Civil War Round Tables, +as well as a recommended list of outstanding books on +the Civil War.</p> + +<p>The material presented in The <i>Civil War Centennial +Handbook</i> has been selected from standard sources, the +most outstanding of which are: the <i>Official Records of +the Union and Confederate Armies and Navies</i>, Moore's +<i>Rebellion Record</i>, Cullum's <i>Biographical Register of +West Point Graduates</i>, Phisterer's <i>Statistical Record</i>, +Livermore's <i>Numbers and Losses in the Civil War</i>, +Fox's <i>Regimental Losses</i>, the <i>Dictionary of American +Biography</i>, Dyer's <i>Compendium of the War of the Rebellion</i>, +the <i>Annual Reports of the Secretary of War</i>, and +last but far from least, one of the richest sources of information +available, my fellow members of the District +of Columbia Civil War Round Table.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 450px;"> +<img src="images/illus-005.jpg" width="450" height="184" alt="" title="" /> +<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[5]</a></span> +</div> + + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<h2><span class="smcap">The First Modern War</span></h2> + +<blockquote><p class="center"><i>In the arts of life, man invents nothing; but in the arts +of death he outdoes Nature herself, and produces by +chemistry and machinery all the slaughter of plague, +pestilence and famine.</i></p></blockquote> +<p class="right"> +—<i>GEORGE BERNARD SHAW</i><br /> +</p> + + +<p>The arts of tactics and strategy were revolutionized by the many +developments introduced during the 1860's.

Although +his chief claim to fame was the destructive "March to the Sea", a +portrait of the Union general occupies a prominent place in the +Memorial Tower of this Southern university.</p> + +<p>Over one-fourth of the West Point graduates who fought during the +Civil War were in the Confederate Army. Half of the 304 who +served in Gray were on active duty in the United States Army when +war broke out. Of the total number of West Pointers who went +South, 148 were promoted to the rank of general officer. In all, +313 of the 1,098 officers in the United States Army joined the +Confederacy.</p> + +<p>One fourth of the officers in the United States Navy resigned to +cast their lot with the Confederate Navy.

BUTLER, +FITZHUGH LEE, and JOE WHEELER. Lee and Wheeler, though +they served as generals in the Confederate Army as well as in the +United States Army during the Spanish American War, both graduated +at the bottom of their West Point classes. When Lee and +Wheeler were promoted to major general in 1901, their commissions +were signed by a former Yankee officer—President William +McKinley.</p> + +<p>General GEORGE PICKETT, a native Virginian, was appointed to +the United States Military Academy from the State of Illinois. +John Todd Stuart obtained the appointment at the request of his +law partner, Abraham Lincoln.</p> + +<p>The senior general in the Confederate Army, SAMUEL COOPER, +hailed from New York.

Confederate General JOHN +C. PEMBERTON, a Pennsylvanian by birth, surrendered Vicksburg +in 1863.

Both were removed from the battlefield and +after a separation of four years, they were taken to the same +hospital in Washington.

Approximately 100,000 were 16 +and an equal number 15. Three hundred lads were 13 or less, and +the records show that there were 25 no older than 10 years.</p> + +<p>The average infantry regiment of 10 companies consisted of 30 +line officers and 1300 men. However, by the time a new regiment +reached the battlefield, it would often have less than 800 men +available for combat duty. Sickness and details as cooks, teamsters, +servants, and clerks accounted for the greatly reduced +numbers. Actually, in many of the large battles the regimental +fighting strength averaged no more than 480 men.</p> + +<p>In 1864 the basic daily ration for a Union soldier was (in ounces): +20—beef, 18—flour, 2.56—dry beans, 1.6—green coffee, 2.4—sugar, +.64—salt, and smaller amounts of pepper, yeast powder, soap, +candles, and vinegar. While campaigning, soldiers seldom obtained +their full ration and many had to forage for subsistence.</p> + +<p>In the Army of Northern Virginia in 1863 the rations available for +every 100 Confederate soldiers over a 30-day period consisted of +1/4 lb. of bacon, 18 oz. of flour, 10 lbs. of rice, and a small amount +of peas and dried fruit—when they could be obtained. (It is little +wonder that Lee elected to carry the war into Pennsylvania—if +for no other reason than to obtain food for an undernourished army.)</p> + +<p>During the Shenandoah Valley campaign of 1862 "Stonewall" Jackson +marched his force of 16,000 men more than 600 miles in 35 days. +Five major battles were fought and four separate Union armies, +totaling 63,000, were defeated.</p> + +<p>In June 1864, the U.S.S. <i>Kearsarge</i> sank the C.S.S. <i>Alabama</i> in a +fierce engagement in the English Channel off Cherbourg, France. +Frenchmen gathered along the beach to witness the hour-long +duel, which inspired a young French artist, Edouard Manet, to +paint the battle scene that now hangs in the Philadelphia Museum +of Art.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_12" id="Page_12">[12]</a></span></p> + +<p>The Confederate cruiser <i>Shenandoah</i> sailed completely around the +world raiding Union commerce vessels and whalers. The ship and +crew surrendered to British authorities at Liverpool in November +1865, seven months after Lee's surrender at Appomattox.</p> + +<p>The greatest naval bombardment during the war was on Christmas +Eve, 1864, at Fort Fisher, North Carolina. Fifty-seven vessels, +with a total of 670 guns, were engaged—the largest fleet ever +assembled by the U.S. Navy up to that time. The Army, Navy, and +Marines combined in a joint operation to reduce and capture the +fort.</p> + +<p>In July, 1862 the first Negro troops of the Civil War were organized +by General David Hunter. Known as the 1st South Carolina Regiment, +they were later designated the 33rd Regiment United States +Colored Troops. Some 186,000 Negro soldiers served in the Union +Army, 4,300 of whom became battle casualties.</p> + +<p>At the battle of Fredericksburg in 1862, the line of Confederate +trenches extended a distance of seven miles. The troop density +in these defensive works was 11,000 per mile.</p> + +<p>Over 900 guns and mortars bristled from the 68 forts defending +the Nation's Capital during the war. The fortifications, constructed +by the Engineer Corps during the early part of the war, +circled the city on a 37-mile perimeter.</p> + +<p>During Sherman's campaign from Chattanooga to Atlanta, the +Union Army of the Tennessee, in a period of four months, constructed +over 300 miles of rifle pits, fired 149,670 artillery +rounds and 22,137,132 rounds of small-arms ammunition.</p> + +<p>To fire a Civil War musket, eleven separate motions had to be +made. The regulation in the 1860's specified that a soldier should +fire three aimed shots per minute, allowing 20 seconds per shot +and less than two seconds per motion.</p> + +<p>At the battle of Stone's River, Tennessee, in January, 1863, the +Federal infantry in three days exhausted over 2,000,000 rounds of +ammunition, and the artillery fired 20,307 rounds. The total +weight of the projectiles was in excess of 375,000 pounds.</p> + +<p>At the Battle of First Bull Run or Manassas, it has been estimated +that between 8,000 and 10,000 bullets were fired for every +man killed and wounded.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_13" id="Page_13">[13]</a></span></p> + +<p>The campaign against Petersburg, the longest sustained operation +of the war, began in the summer of 1864 and lasted for 10 months, +until the spring of '65. The fighting covered an area of more +than 170 square miles, with 35 miles of trenches and fortifications +stretching from Richmond to the southwest of Petersburg. During +September, 1864, nearly 175 field and siege guns poured forth a +daily average of 7.8 tons of iron on the Confederate works.</p> + +<p>The greatest cavalry battle in the history of the western hemisphere +was fought at Brandy Station, Virginia, on June 9, 1863. +Nearly 20,000 cavalrymen were engaged for more than 12 hours. +At the height of the battle, along Fleetwood Hill, charges and +countercharges were made continuously for almost three hours.</p> + +<p>The greatest regimental loss of the entire war was borne by the +1st Maine Heavy Artillery. The unit saw no action until 1864, but +in the short span of less than one year, over half of its 2,202 men +engaged in battle were hit. In the assault on Petersburg in June, +1864, the regiment lost 604 men killed and wounded in less than +20 minutes.</p> + +<p>The largest regimental loss in a single battle was suffered by the +26th North Carolina Infantry at Gettysburg. The regiment went +into battle with a little over 800 men, and by the end of the third +day, 708 were dead, wounded, or missing. In one company of 84, +every officer and man was hit.</p> + +<p>Of the 46 Confederate regiments that went into the famous charge +at Gettysburg on July 3, 1863, 15 were commanded by General +Pickett. Thirteen of his regiments were led by Virginia Military +Institute graduates; only two of them survived the charge.</p> + +<p>The heaviest numerical loss during any single battle was at +Gettysburg, where 40,322 Americans were killed or wounded. On +the Union side 21 per cent of those engaged were killed or wounded, +in the Confederate ranks 30 per cent—the largest percentage of +Confederates hit in any battle.

But like all truly great tragedies, +it carries with it an enduring lesson and a profound inspiration. It was a demonstration of +heroism and sacrifice by men and women of both sides, who valued principle above life itself +and whose devotion to duty is a proud part of our national inheritance.</p> + +<p>Both sections of our magnificently reunited country sent into their armies men who +became soldiers as good as any who ever fought under any flag. Military history records +nothing finer than the courage and spirit displayed at such battles as Chickamauga, Antietam, +Kenesaw Mountain and Gettysburg. That America could produce men so valiant and +so enduring is a matter for deep and abiding pride.</p> + +<p>The same spirit on the part of the people back home supported those soldiers through +four years of great trial. That a Nation which contained hardly more than 30 million people, +North and South together, could sustain 600,000 deaths without faltering is a lasting testimonial +to something unconquerable in the American spirit. And that a transcending sense +of unity and larger common purpose could, in the end, cause the men and women who had +suffered so greatly to close ranks once the contest ended and to go on together to build a +greater, freer and happier America must be a source of inspiration as long as our country +may last.</p> + +<p>By a joint resolution approved on September 7, 1957, the Congress established the +Civil War Centennial Commission to coordinate the nationwide observances of the one hundredth +anniversary of the Civil War. This resolution authorized and requested the President +to issue proclamations inviting the people of the United States to participate in those observances.</p> + +<p>NOW THEREFORE, I, DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER, President of the United States +of America, do hereby invite all of the people of our country to take a direct and active part +in the Centennial of the Civil War.</p> + +<p>I request all units and agencies of government, Federal, State and local, and their +officials, to encourage, foster and participate in Centennial observances. And I especially +urge our Nation's schools and colleges, its libraries and museums, its churches and religious +bodies, its civic, service and patriotic organizations, its learned and professional +societies, its arts, sciences and industries, and its informational media, to plan and carry +out their own appropriate Centennial observances during the years 1961 to 1965; all to +the end of enriching our knowledge and appreciation of this great chapter in our Nation's +history and of making this memorable period truly a Centennial for all Americans.</p> + +<p>IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the +United States of America to be affixed.</p> + +<blockquote><p>DONE at the City of Washington this 6th day of December +in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty, and of the Independence +of the United States of America the one hundred and eighty-fourth.</p></blockquote> + + +<div class="quotsig"> +By the President:<br /> +Dwight D.

Price is a pursuer of the lesser-known, but important, facts about the Civil War; an interest +that is reflected throughout this unique handbook. Living in Northern Virginia, he has been over many square +miles of the battlefields on foot and, often with a surveyor's transit, has plotted key sites and troop positions +left obscure in the records of the armies. He specializes in the smaller, yet significant battles fought +in Virginia—First Manassas, Cedar Mountain, Brandy Station—and in the operations of the signals services +and topographical engineers. Modern data-processing techniques were applied to the Civil War for the first +time when he devised a new method of cataloguing the war's battles, skirmishes, and engagements; this compilation, +prepared by International Business Machines Corporation, is being used by the National and State +Commissions in planning the numerous Civil War Centennial events.</p> + +<p>Virgil Carrington Jones, biographer of Ranger Mosby and author of "The Civil War at Sea", has best and +most accurately described Mr. Price as "a walking encyclopedia of Civil War lore".</p> + +<p>A native of North Carolina, he has served on the staff of the American Military Institute and is a member +of the Civil War Centennial Commission of the District of Columbia.</p> + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 296px;"><br /><br /> +<img src="images/bcover.jpg" width="296" height="450" alt="Back Cover" title="" /> +</div> + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> + +<div class='tnote'><h3>Transcriber's Notes:</h3> + +<p>Research indicates that the copyright was not renewed.</p> + +<p>Obvious punctuation errors repaired.</p> + +<p>This text uses both ironclad and iron-clad.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> + diff --git a/37740-h/images/bcover.jpg b/37740-h/images/bcover.jpg Binary files differnew file mode

A. + + + + +THE CIVIL WAR + + _Here brothers fought for their principles + Here heroes died to save their country + And a united people will forever cherish + the precious legacy of their noble manhood._ + + --_PENNSYLVANIA MONUMENT AT VICKSBURG_ + + +The Civil War, which began in the 1830's as a cold war and moved toward +the inevitable conflict somewhere between 1850 and 1860, was one of +America's greatest emotional experiences. When the war finally broke in +1861, beliefs and political ideals had become so firm that they +transcended family ties and bonds of friendship--brother was cast +against brother. The story of this supreme test of our Nation, though +one of tragedy, is also one of triumph, for it united a nation that had +been divided for over a quarter century. + +Holding a place in history midway between the Revolutionary War of the +18th century and the First World War of the 20th, the American Civil War +had far-reaching effects: by the many innovations and developments it +stimulated, it became the forerunner of modern warfare; by the demands +it made on technology and production, it hastened the industrial +revolution in America. This conflict also provided the ferment from +which great personalities arise. Qualities of true greatness were +revealed in men like William Tecumseh Sherman, the most brilliant +strategist of modern times; Nathan Bedford Forrest, one of the greatest +of natural born leaders; Robert E. Lee, "one of the supremely gifted men +produced by our Nation"; and Abraham Lincoln, who, like the other great +men of that era, would be minor characters in our history had they not +been called upon in this time of crisis. And emerging from such trying +times were seven future Presidents of the United States, all officers of +the Union Army. + +But the story of this sectional struggle is not only one of great +leaders and events. It is the story of 18,000 men in Gen. Sedgwick's +Corps who formed a marching column that stretched over ten miles of +road, and in that hot month of July 1863, the story of how they marched +steadily for eighteen hours, stopping only once to rest, until they +reached Gettysburg where the crucial battle was raging. It is the story +of more than two hundred young VMI Cadets, who without hesitation left +their classrooms to fight alongside hardened veterans at the battle of +New Market in 1864. Or it is the story of two brothers who followed +different flags and then met under such tragic circumstances on the +field of battle at Petersburg. + +It is also a story of the human toil and machinery that produced more +than four million small arms for the Union Army and stamped from copper +over one billion percussion caps for these weapons during the four years +of war. Inside the Confederacy, it is the story of experiments with new +weapons--the submarine, iron-clad rams, torpedoes, and landmines--in an +attempt to overcome the North's numerical superiority. + +It is the purpose of _The Civil War Centennial Handbook_ to present this +unusual story of the Civil War, a mosaic composed of fragments from the +lesser-known and yet colorful facts that have survived a century but +have been obscured by the voluminous battle narratives and campaign +studies. + +Much of this material, when originally drafted, was selected by the +National Civil War Centennial Commission for their informative and +interesting _Facts About the Civil War_. This original material, revised +and enlarged, has grown into _The Civil War Centennial Handbook_. + +The handbook is divided into five basic parts. The first is a +presentation of little-known and unusual facts about participants, +battles and losses, and the cost of war. The second is a graphic +portrayal of both the men and machines that made the war of the 1860's. +The special selection of photographs for this portion of the story were +made available through the courtesy of the National Archives and the +Library of Congress. Next are reproductions in color of Union and +Confederate uniforms from the _Official Records Atlas_ and the famous +paintings by H. A. Ogden. The fourth section is a reference table of +battles and losses listed in chronological order, accompanied by a map +showing the major engagements of the war. And primarily for the growing +number of new Civil War buffs, there is a roster of Civil War Round +Tables, as well as a recommended list of outstanding books on the Civil +War. + +The material presented in The _Civil War Centennial Handbook_ has been +selected from standard sources, the most outstanding of which are: the +_Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies and Navies_, +Moore's _Rebellion Record_, Cullum's _Biographical Register of West +Point Graduates_, Phisterer's _Statistical Record_, Livermore's _Numbers +and Losses in the Civil War_, Fox's _Regimental Losses_, the _Dictionary +of American Biography_, Dyer's _Compendium of the War of the Rebellion_, +the _Annual Reports of the Secretary of War_, and last but far from +least, one of the richest sources of information available, my fellow +members of the District of Columbia Civil War Round Table. + +[Illustration] + + + + +THE FIRST MODERN WAR + + _In the arts of life, man invents nothing; but in the arts of + death he outdoes Nature herself, and produces by chemistry and + machinery all the slaughter of plague, pestilence and famine. + + --_GEORGE BERNARD SHAW_ + + +The arts of tactics and strategy were revolutionized by the many +developments introduced during the 1860's. Thus the Civil War ushered in +a new era in warfare with the ... + + FIRST practical machine gun. + FIRST repeating rifle used in combat. + FIRST use of the railroads as a major means of transporting + troops and supplies. + FIRST mobile siege artillery mounted on rail cars. + FIRST extensive use of trenches and field fortifications. + FIRST large-scale use of land mines, known as "subterranean + shells". + FIRST naval mines or "torpedoes". + FIRST ironclad ships engaged in combat. + FIRST multi-manned submarine. + FIRST organized and systematic care of the wounded on the + battlefield. + FIRST widespread use of rails for hospital trains. + FIRST organized military signal service. + FIRST visual signaling by flag and torch during combat. + FIRST use of portable telegraph units on the battlefield. + FIRST military reconnaissance from a manned balloon. + FIRST draft in the United States. + FIRST organized use of Negro troops in combat. + FIRST voting in the field for a national election by servicemen. + FIRST income tax--levied to finance the war. + FIRST photograph taken in combat. + FIRST Medal of Honor awarded an American soldier. + + + + +BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER + + "_And why should we not accord them equal honor, for they were + both Americans, imbued with those qualities which have made + this country great._" + + _--BELL IRVIN WILEY_ + + +PRESIDENT LINCOLN, the Commander-In-Chief of the Union Army, had four +brothers-in-law in the Confederate Army, and three of his sisters-in-law +were married to Confederate officers. + +JEFFERSON DAVIS, Commander-in-Chief of the Confederate Army, served the +U.S. Army as a colonel during the Mexican War and held the post of +Secretary of War in President Pierce's cabinet. Previously, as a senior +United States Senator, he had been Chairman of the Senate Military +Affairs Committee. Lincoln and Davis were born in Kentucky, the only +state that has ever had two of its sons serve as President at the same +time. + +JOHN TYLER, 10th President of the United States, was elected to the +Confederate States Congress in 1862, but died before it convened. On +March 4, 1861, Tyler's granddaughter unfurled the first flag of the +Confederacy when it was raised over the Confederate Capitol at +Montgomery, Alabama. + +The Battle of Lynchburg, Virginia, in June 1864 brought together two +future Presidents of the United States--General RUTHERFORD B. HAYES and +Major WILLIAM McKINLEY, U.S.A.--and a former Vice-President--General +JOHN C. BRECKINRIDGE, C.S.A. Five other Union generals later rose to the +Presidency: ANDREW JOHNSON, U.S. GRANT, JAMES A. GARFIELD, CHESTER A. +ARTHUR, and BENJAMIN HARRISON. + +The four Secretaries of War during the eleven years prior to the Civil +War were all from the South. All four later held office in the +Confederate government. + +Fourteen of the 26 Confederate Senators had previously served in the +United States Congress. In the Confederate House of Representatives, 33 +members were former U.S. Congressmen. + +Confederate Generals ROBERT E. LEE and P.G.T. BEAUREGARD both ranked +second in their graduating classes at West Point, and both officers +later returned to hold the position of Superintendent of the Academy. +Lee's appointment to the rank of full colonel in the United States Army +was signed by President Lincoln. + +In 1859 WILLIAM TECUMSEH SHERMAN was appointed the first president of +what is today the Louisiana State University. Although his chief claim +to fame was the destructive "March to the Sea", a portrait of the Union +general occupies a prominent place in the Memorial Tower of this +Southern university. + +Over one-fourth of the West Point graduates who fought during the Civil +War were in the Confederate Army. Half of the 304 who served in Gray +were on active duty in the United States Army when war broke out. Of the +total number of West Pointers who went South, 148 were promoted to the +rank of general officer. In all, 313 of the 1,098 officers in the United +States Army joined the Confederacy. + +One fourth of the officers in the United States Navy resigned to cast +their lot with the Confederate Navy. Of the 322 who resigned, 243 were +line officers. + +When J.E.B. STUART raided Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, in 1862, he was +pursued by Federal cavalry under the command of his father-in-law, Brig. +Gen. PHILIP ST. GEORGE COOKE, whose name is frequently confused with +that of Confederate General PHILIP ST. GEORGE COCKE, both West Pointers. +As if that weren't bad enough, there was a Union general by the name of +JEFFERSON DAVIS. + +WILLIAM T. MAGRUDER (U.S.M.A. 1850) commanded a squadron of the 1st +United States Cavalry at First Manassas and during the Peninsula +Campaign. In August 1862 he was granted leave of absence, and two months +later he switched loyalties to join the Confederate Army. On July 3, +1863, he fell during the famous charge at Gettysburg. + +The Virginia Military Institute graduated WILLIAM H. GILLESPIE in the +special war class of 1862. While awaiting his appointment as an officer +on "Stonewall" Jackson's staff, he deserted to the Union Army and became +Adjutant of the 14th West Virginia Cavalry. + +If Blue and Gray didn't meet again at Gettysburg during the annual +reunions, they at least met on the banks of the Nile. No less than 50 +former Union and Confederate officers held the rank of colonel or above +in the Army of the Khedive during the 1870's. Two ex-Confederate +generals and three former Union officers attained the rank of general in +the Egyptian Army, holding such positions as Chief of Staff, Chief of +Engineers, and Chief Ordnance Officer. + +Only three Confederates ever held the rank of general in the United +States Army following the Civil War--MATTHEW C. BUTLER, FITZHUGH LEE, +and JOE WHEELER. Lee and Wheeler, though they served as generals in the +Confederate Army as well as in the United States Army during the Spanish +American War, both graduated at the bottom of their West Point classes. +When Lee and Wheeler were promoted to major general in 1901, their +commissions were signed by a former Yankee officer--President William +McKinley. + +General GEORGE PICKETT, a native Virginian, was appointed to the United +States Military Academy from the State of Illinois. John Todd Stuart +obtained the appointment at the request of his law partner, Abraham +Lincoln. + +The senior general in the Confederate Army, SAMUEL COOPER, hailed from +New York. Before the war, he had been Adjutant General of the United +States Army. From 1861 to 1865 he was the Adjutant and Inspector General +of the Confederate Army. + +Fort Sumter was surrendered in 1861 by a Kentucky-born Union officer, +Major ROBERT ANDERSON. Confederate General JOHN C. PEMBERTON, a +Pennsylvanian by birth, surrendered Vicksburg in 1863. There was no +collusion in either surrender; both men were loyal supporters of their +respective causes. + +The first Superintendent of the United States Naval Academy, Commodore +FRANKLIN BUCHANAN, commanded the C.S.S. _Virginia_ (_Merrimac_) in its +first engagement. On the first ship to surrender under the _Virginia's_ +guns was Buchanan's brother, an officer of the U.S. Navy. + +Major CLIFTON PRENTISS of the 6th Maryland Infantry (Union) and his +younger brother WILLIAM, of the 2nd Maryland Infantry (Confederate), +were both mortally wounded when their regiments clashed at Petersburg on +April 2, 1865--just seven days before hostilities ceased. Both were +removed from the battlefield and after a separation of four years, they +were taken to the same hospital in Washington. Each fought and each died +for his cause. + + + + + THEY ALSO SERVED + + _Fame is the echo of actions, resounding them to the world, + save that the echo repeats only the last part, but fame relates + all...._ + + --_FULLER_ + + +Poet SIDNEY LANIER fought as a private in the 2nd Georgia Battalion +during the Seven Days' Battles near Richmond. In November 1862 he was +captured on a Confederate blockade-runner and imprisoned at Point +Lookout, Maryland. Sixteen years after the war he died from tuberculosis +contracted while in prison. + +New England poet ALBERT PIKE commanded the Confederate Department of +Indian Territory. He wrote the stanzas of the popular Southern version +of _Dixie_, a tune which originated not in the South, but in New York +City during the 1850's. + +At the battle of the Monocacy in 1864 Union General LEW WALLACE, author +of _Ben-Hur_, commanded the force defending Washington against General +Jubal Early's attack. After the war he served as Governor of New Mexico +and Minister to Turkey. + +When the Marion Rangers organized in 1861, SAMUEL CLEMENS (Mark Twain) +joined as a lieutenant, but he left this Missouri Company before it was +mustered into Confederate service, having fired only one hostile shot +during the war. + +Confederate Private HENRY MORTON STANLEY, of "Doctor Livingstone, I +presume" fame, survived a bloody charge at Shiloh only to be taken +prisoner. Later he joined the Union ranks and finished the war in Yankee +blue. + +ANDREW CARNEGIE was a young man in his mid-twenties when he left his +position as superintendent of the Pittsburgh Division, Pennsylvania +Railroad to pitch in with workers rebuilding the rail line from +Annapolis to Washington. Later in 1861 he was given the position of +superintendent of military railways and government telegraph. + +HENRY A. DUPONT, grandson of the DuPont industries founder, was awarded +the Congressional Medal of Honor for gallantry at the battle of Cedar +Creek in October 1864. Captain DuPont, who had graduated from West Point +at the head of his class in 1861, went on to serve as United States +Senator from Delaware. + +ELIAS HOWE presented each field and staff officer of the 5th +Massachusetts Regiment with a stallion fully equipped for service. +Later, he volunteered as a private, and when the State failed to pay his +unit, he met the regimental payroll with his own money. + +At the age of 15 GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE ran away from home and joined the +Union Army. Neither he nor Elias Howe rose to officer rank, but both are +today in the Hall of Fame for their achievements--the air brake and the +sewing machine. + +In 1861 CORNELIUS VANDERBILT presented a high-speed side-wheel steamer +to the United States Navy. At the time, there were less than 50 ships in +active naval service. The cruiser, named the _Vanderbilt_, captured +three blockade-runners during the war and in 1865 participated in the +bombardment and amphibious assault on Fort Fisher. The Federal Navy at +that time had grown to a fleet of more than 550 steam-powered ships. + +Admiral GEORGE DEWEY, of Manila Bay fame, served as a young lieutenant +under Admiral Farragut during the attack on Port Hudson in 1863. His +ship was the only one lost in the engagement. + +Colonel CHRISTOPHER C. ("Kit") CARSON commanded the 1st New Mexico +Volunteers (Union), and campaigned against the Comanche, Navajo, and +Apache Indians during the Civil War. In 1866 he was promoted to +brigadier general. + +In his mid-teens JESSE JAMES joined the Confederate raiders led by +William Quantrill. The famous "Dead or alive" reward for Jesse in 1882 +was issued by an ex-Confederate officer, Governor Thomas T. Crittenden +of Missouri. + +[Illustration] + + + + +THE SOLDIER, THE BATTLE, THE LOSSES + + _"There's many a boy here today who looks on war as all glory, + but, boys, it is all hell."_ + + + --_WILLIAM TECUMSEH SHERMAN_ + + +Of the 2.3 million men enlisted in the Union Army, seventy per cent were +under 23 years of age. Approximately 100,000 were 16 and an equal number +15. Three hundred lads were 13 or less, and the records show that there +were 25 no older than 10 years. + +The average infantry regiment of 10 companies consisted of 30 line +officers and 1300 men. However, by the time a new regiment reached the +battlefield, it would often have less than 800 men available for combat +duty. Sickness and details as cooks, teamsters, servants, and clerks +accounted for the greatly reduced numbers. Actually, in many of the +large battles the regimental fighting strength averaged no more than 480 +men. + +In 1864 the basic daily ration for a Union soldier was (in ounces): +20--beef, 18--flour, 2.56--dry beans, 1.6--green coffee, 2.4--sugar, +.64--salt, and smaller amounts of pepper, yeast powder, soap, candles, +and vinegar. While campaigning, soldiers seldom obtained their full +ration and many had to forage for subsistence. + +In the Army of Northern Virginia in 1863 the rations available for every +100 Confederate soldiers over a 30-day period consisted of 1/4 lb. of +bacon, 18 oz. of flour, 10 lbs. of rice, and a small amount of peas and +dried fruit--when they could be obtained. (It is little wonder that Lee +elected to carry the war into Pennsylvania--if for no other reason than +to obtain food for an undernourished army.) + +During the Shenandoah Valley campaign of 1862 "Stonewall" Jackson +marched his force of 16,000 men more than 600 miles in 35 days. Five +major battles were fought and four separate Union armies, totaling +63,000, were defeated. + +In June 1864, the U.S.S. _Kearsarge_ sank the C.S.S. _Alabama_ in a +fierce engagement in the English Channel off Cherbourg, France. +Frenchmen gathered along the beach to witness the hour-long duel, which +inspired a young French artist, Edouard Manet, to paint the battle scene +that now hangs in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. + +The Confederate cruiser _Shenandoah_ sailed completely around the world +raiding Union commerce vessels and whalers. The ship and crew +surrendered to British authorities at Liverpool in November 1865, seven +months after Lee's surrender at Appomattox. + +The greatest naval bombardment during the war was on Christmas Eve, +1864, at Fort Fisher, North Carolina. Fifty-seven vessels, with a total +of 670 guns, were engaged--the largest fleet ever assembled by the U.S. +Navy up to that time. The Army, Navy, and Marines combined in a joint +operation to reduce and capture the fort. + +In July, 1862 the first Negro troops of the Civil War were organized by +General David Hunter. Known as the 1st South Carolina Regiment, they +were later designated the 33rd Regiment United States Colored Troops. +Some 186,000 Negro soldiers served in the Union Army, 4,300 of whom +became battle casualties. + +At the battle of Fredericksburg in 1862, the line of Confederate +trenches extended a distance of seven miles. The troop density in these +defensive works was 11,000 per mile. + +Over 900 guns and mortars bristled from the 68 forts defending the +Nation's Capital during the war. The fortifications, constructed by the +Engineer Corps during the early part of the war, circled the city on a +37-mile perimeter. + +During Sherman's campaign from Chattanooga to Atlanta, the Union Army of +the Tennessee, in a period of four months, constructed over 300 miles of +rifle pits, fired 149,670 artillery rounds and 22,137,132 rounds of +small-arms ammunition. + +To fire a Civil War musket, eleven separate motions had to be made. The +regulation in the 1860's specified that a soldier should fire three +aimed shots per minute, allowing 20 seconds per shot and less than two +seconds per motion. + +At the battle of Stone's River, Tennessee, in January, 1863, the Federal +infantry in three days exhausted over 2,000,000 rounds of ammunition, +and the artillery fired 20,307 rounds. The total weight of the +projectiles was in excess of 375,000 pounds. + +At the Battle of First Bull Run or Manassas, it has been estimated that +between 8,000 and 10,000 bullets were fired for every man killed and +wounded. + +The campaign against Petersburg, the longest sustained operation of the +war, began in the summer of 1864 and lasted for 10 months, until the +spring of '65. The fighting covered an area of more than 170 square +miles, with 35 miles of trenches and fortifications stretching from +Richmond to the southwest of Petersburg. During September, 1864, nearly +175 field and siege guns poured forth a daily average of 7.8 tons of +iron on the Confederate works. + +The greatest cavalry battle in the history of the western hemisphere was +fought at Brandy Station, Virginia, on June 9, 1863. Nearly 20,000 +cavalrymen were engaged for more than 12 hours. At the height of the +battle, along Fleetwood Hill, charges and countercharges were made +continuously for almost three hours. + +The greatest regimental loss of the entire war was borne by the 1st +Maine Heavy Artillery. The unit saw no action until 1864, but in the +short span of less than one year, over half of its 2,202 men engaged in +battle were hit. In the assault on Petersburg in June, 1864, the +regiment lost 604 men killed and wounded in less than 20 minutes. + +The largest regimental loss in a single battle was suffered by the 26th +North Carolina Infantry at Gettysburg. The regiment went into battle +with a little over 800 men, and by the end of the third day, 708 were +dead, wounded, or missing. In one company of 84, every officer and man +was hit. + +Of the 46 Confederate regiments that went into the famous charge at +Gettysburg on July 3, 1863, 15 were commanded by General Pickett. +Thirteen of his regiments were led by Virginia Military Institute +graduates; only two of them survived the charge. + +The heaviest numerical loss during any single battle was at Gettysburg, +where 40,322 Americans were killed or wounded. On the Union side 21 per +cent of those engaged were killed or wounded, in the Confederate ranks +30 per cent--the largest percentage of Confederates hit in any battle. +The largest percentage of Union soldiers hit in battle was at Port +Hudson in May 1863, where 26.7 per cent of those engaged were killed or +wounded. + +During May and June 1864 the Armies of the Potomac and the James lost +77,452 men--a greater number than Lee had in his entire army. + +Union Army hospitals treated over 6 million cases during the war. There +were twice as many deaths from disease as from hostile bullets. Diarrhea +and dysentery alone took the lives of 44,558 Union soldiers. + +From 1861-1865 the Quartermaster Corps of the Union Army made 116,148 +burials. + +In the 79 National Civil War cemeteries, 54 per cent of the graves are +those of unknown soldiers. The largest Civil War cemetery is at +Vicksburg, where 16,000 soldiers rest; only 3,896 are known. At the +Confederate prison site in Salisbury, North Carolina, where 12,126 Union +soldiers are buried, 99 per cent are unknown. + +[Illustration] + + + + +THE COST OF WAR + + _Nor deem the irrevocable Past + As wholly wasted, wholly vain, + If, rising on its wrecks, at last + To something nobler we attain._ + + --_HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW_ + + +From 1861-1865 it cost the United States Government approximately 2 +million dollars a day to prosecute the war; the Second World War cost +more than 113 million dollars a day. + +In 1880 the Secretary of the Treasury reported that the Civil War had +cost the Federal Government 6.19 billion dollars. By 1910 the cost of +the war, including pensions and other veterans benefits, had reached +11.5 billion dollars. World War II was three months shorter than the +Civil War, but from 1942-1945 approximately 156 billion dollars was +spent on the military establishment. + +The total cost of the war to the South has been estimated at 4 billion +dollars. + +The public debt outstanding for an average population of 33 million rose +from $2.80 to $75 per capita between 1861 and 1865. In mid-1958 the per +capita debt stood at $1,493 for a population of 175.5 million. + +In 1958 the government was providing pensions for 3,042 widows of Union +veterans. In June of that year, as a result of special legislation, 526 +widows of Southern soldiers and the two surviving Confederate veterans +became eligible for Federal pensions. The last Union veteran, Albert +Woolson, had died in 1956, leaving the two Confederates, John Salling +and Walter Williams, to draw the highest Civil War pensions paid by the +United States Government. The last Civil War veteran, Walter Williams, +died in December 1959 at the age of 117. Since then, William's claim as +a veteran has been disputed in the newspapers, but sufficient evidence +does not exist to positively prove or disprove his military status. + +The pursuit and capture of Jefferson Davis at Irwinville, Georgia, cost +the Federal Government $97,031.62. + +From 1861-1865 it cost the Federal government, in millions of dollars: + + $727--to clothe and feed the Army + 18--to clothe and feed the Navy + 339--for transportation of troops and supplies + 127--for cavalry and artillery horses + 76--for the purchase of arms + 8--to maintain and provide for Confederate prisoners + +Soldiers and sailors of the United States received 1.34 billion dollars +in pay during the war. + +In 1861 an infantry private was paid $13 per month--compared to a +private's pay of $83 today. A Civil War colonel drew $95 per month and a +brigadier general $124. Their counterparts today are paid a monthly base +rate of $592 and $800. + +During the 1860's the average cost of a musket was $13 as compared to +$105 for an M1 Garand in World War II. + +[Illustration] + + +NUMBERS AND LOSSES + + North South[1] + Population 22,400,000 9,103,000[2] + Military Age Group (18-45) 4,600,000 985,000 + Trained Militia 1827-1861 2,470,000 692,000 + Regular Army January, 1861 16,400 0 + Military Potential 1861 2,486,400 692,000 + Total Individuals in Service 1861-1865 2,213,400 1,003,600 + + Total Strength July, 1861 219,400 114,000 + Total Strength January, 1863 962,300 450,200 + Peak Strength 1864-1865 1,044,660 484,800 + Army 980,100 481,200 + Navy 60,700 3,000 + Marines 3,860 600 + + Total Hit in Battle 385,100 320,000 + Total Battle Deaths 110,100 94,000 + Killed in Battle 67,100 54,000 + Died of Wounds 43,000 40,000 + Wounded (not mortally)[3] 275,000 226,000 + Missing in Action 6,750 --- + Captured[4] 211,400 462,000 + Died in Prison 30,200 26,000 + Died of Disease 224,000 60,000 + Other Deaths 34,800 --- + Desertions[5] 199,000 83,400 + Discharged 426,500 57,800 + Surrendered 1865 174,223 + +[Footnote 1: Confederate figures are based upon the best information and +estimates available.] + +[Footnote 2: Includes 3,760,000 slaves in the seceded states.] + +[Footnote 3: A number of these were returned to duty.

But like all truly great +tragedies, it carries with it an enduring lesson and a profound +inspiration. It was a demonstration of heroism and sacrifice by men and +women of both sides, who valued principle above life itself and whose +devotion to duty is a proud part of our national inheritance. + +Both sections of our magnificently reunited country sent into their +armies men who became soldiers as good as any who ever fought under any +flag. Military history records nothing finer than the courage and spirit +displayed at such battles as Chickamauga, Antietam, Kenesaw Mountain and +Gettysburg. That America could produce men so valiant and so enduring is +a matter for deep and abiding pride. + +The same spirit on the part of the people back home supported those +soldiers through four years of great trial. That a Nation which +contained hardly more than 30 million people, North and South together, +could sustain 600,000 deaths without faltering is a lasting testimonial +to something unconquerable in the American spirit. And that a +transcending sense of unity and larger common purpose could, in the end, +cause the men and women who had suffered so greatly to close ranks once +the contest ended and to go on together to build a greater, freer and +happier America must be a source of inspiration as long as our country +may last. + +By a joint resolution approved on September 7, 1957, the Congress +established the Civil War Centennial Commission to coordinate the +nationwide observances of the one hundredth anniversary of the Civil +War. This resolution authorized and requested the President to issue +proclamations inviting the people of the United States to participate in +those observances. + +NOW THEREFORE, I, DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER, President of the United States +of America, do hereby invite all of the people of our country to take a +direct and active part in the Centennial of the Civil War. + +I request all units and agencies of government, Federal, State and +local, and their officials, to encourage, foster and participate in +Centennial observances. And I especially urge our Nation's schools and +colleges, its libraries and museums, its churches and religious bodies, +its civic, service and patriotic organizations, its learned and +professional societies, its arts, sciences and industries, and its +informational media, to plan and carry out their own appropriate +Centennial observances during the years 1961 to 1965; all to the end of +enriching our knowledge and appreciation of this great chapter in our +Nation's history and of making this memorable period truly a Centennial +for all Americans. + +IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of +the United States of America to be affixed. + + DONE at the City of Washington this 6th day of December in the + year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty, and of the + Independence of the United States of America the one hundred + and eighty-fourth. + + By the President: + + Dwight D. Eisenhower + + +ABOUT THE AUTHOR + +William H. Price is a pursuer of the lesser-known, but important, facts +about the Civil War; an interest that is reflected throughout this +unique handbook. Living in Northern Virginia, he has been over many +square miles of the battlefields on foot and, often with a surveyor's +transit, has plotted key sites and troop positions left obscure in the +records of the armies. He specializes in the smaller, yet significant +battles fought in Virginia--First Manassas, Cedar Mountain, Brandy +Station--and in the operations of the signals services and topographical +engineers. Modern data-processing techniques were applied to the Civil +War for the first time when he devised a new method of cataloguing the +war's battles, skirmishes, and engagements; this compilation, prepared +by International Business Machines Corporation, is being used by the +National and State Commissions in planning the numerous Civil War +Centennial events. + +Virgil Carrington Jones, biographer of Ranger Mosby and author of "The +Civil War at Sea", has best and most accurately described Mr. Price as +"a walking encyclopedia of Civil War lore". + +A native of North Carolina, he has served on the staff of the American +Military Institute and is a member of the Civil War Centennial +Commission of the District of Columbia. + + + * * * * * + +Transcriber's Notes: + +Research indicates that the copyright was not renewed. + +Page 18: Corrected Gary to Gray "Gray and Blue CWRT" + +Page 19: Changed WISCONSIN (1) to WISCONSIN (2) + +Page 20: Changed Shenanhoah to Shenandoah + +Page 27: Changed 1960s to 1860s "for the Shamrock Regiment of the +1860's" + +Page 32: Corrected spelling of "wariors" to "warriors" + +Page 67: Abbreviated dates to narrow the table + +Page 71: Corrected spelling of "Irrepressable" to "Irrepressible +Conflict" + +Text uses both ironclad and iron-clad + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The Civil War Centennial Handbook, by +William H.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone.

Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/37740.zip b/37740.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..96cd6e7 --- /dev/null +++ b/37740.zip diff --git a/LICENSE.txt b/LICENSE.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6312041 --- /dev/null +++ b/LICENSE.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +This eBook, including all associated images, markup, improvements, +metadata, and any other content or labor, has been confirmed to be +in the PUBLIC DOMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES. + +Procedures for determining public domain status are described in +the "Copyright How-To" at https://www.gutenberg.org. + +No investigation has been made concerning possible copyrights in +jurisdictions other than the United States.
