Letters
from the Civil War
When he wasn't marching, fighting, or setting up camp, the
Civil War soldier might take a few moments to write to his loved ones at home. These
letters often contain accounts of battles, life in camp, and general news. But many
soldiers, as they marched off to face the enemy, had left behind a wife or sweetheart, and
to them they would compose sweet, poignant, and occasionally funny letters that give life
and personality to the participants in this great national conflict
There are hundreds of letters written by soldiers, generals
etc during the Civil War. But the ones below are generally the more interesting and
credible ones. You provide a deeper insight of the situation during the Civil War.
