Publisher's Synopsis
""What I Saw From 1861-1864"" is a historical memoir written by John M. Paver and published in 1906. The book provides a first-hand account of Paver's experiences during the American Civil War, spanning from 1861 to 1864. Paver served as a soldier in the Union Army and witnessed some of the most significant battles of the war, including the Battle of Gettysburg and the Siege of Vicksburg. The book offers a unique perspective on the war, as Paver was not a high-ranking officer but rather an ordinary soldier who experienced the conflict from the front lines. In addition to describing the battles he witnessed, Paver also provides insight into the daily life of a soldier during the war, including the challenges of living in army camps and the difficulties of maintaining morale in the face of constant danger. ""What I Saw From 1861-1864"" is a valuable historical document that provides a vivid and personal account of one soldier's experiences during the American Civil War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
