Hard Marching Every Day: The Civil War Letters of Private Wilbur Fisk, 1861-1865 by: Fisk, Wilbur Editor: Rosenblatt, Emil Editor: Rosenblatt, Ruth

Hardcover. Lawrence, KS, University Press of Kansas, Reprint, 1992, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 383 pages, hardcover. Dust jacket, covers, and interior pages are all clean and bright. Binding is solid. As a war correspondent, Wilbur Fisk was an amateur, yet his letters to the Montpelier Green Mountain Freeman comprise one of the finest collections of Civil War letters in existence. He was a rural school teacher from Vermont, primarily self-educated, who enlisted in the Union Army simply because he believed he would regret it later if he didn't. Unlike professional war correspondents, Private Fisk had no access to rank or headquarters. Instead, he wrote of life as a private-as one of the foot soldiers who slept in the mud and obeyed orders no matter how incomprehensible. Clean copy. Record # 34205
