Summary: A fascinating primary source
Comment: Compiled and edited by William E. Hughes (who is the great-great grandson of Lt. Col. Newton T. Colby and a member of Old Baldy Civil War Round Table), The Civil War Papers Of Lt. Colonel Newton T. Colby, New York Infantry is the eye-witness account of a lieutenant colonel who served with the 23rd New York, the 107th New York at Antietam, Chancellorsville and Harper's Ferry, and at a later date with the Veteran Reserve Corps as superintendent of Old Capital Prison. Colby's keen observations and vividly recorded recollections of prominent figures in the Civil War, and his informative daily recountings and insights, add an extra dimension of humanity and understanding to the brutality of the war that divided America and its far reaching aftermath. A fascinating primary source, The Civil War Papers Of Lt. Colonel Newton T. Colby, New York Infantry is a welcome and much appreciated contribution to Civil War Studies collections.
