"Personal Recollections of the War of 1861" by Charles A. Fuller is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The narrative provides a first-hand perspective of the author's experiences as a soldier in the Sixty-First Regiment of New York Volunteer Infantry during the American Civil War. Covering various events from his enlistment to the battles he faced, the book serves as a tribute to the soldiers and the sheer brutality of the war. At the start of the memoir, the author recounts his journey from Ohio to enlist in the military, driven by patriotic fervor and influenced by family legacy. He shares poignant moments, such as the emotional farewells with loved ones and the camaraderie developed among fellow soldiers. The early chapters provide a detailed depiction of military life, including training, discipline, and the challenges faced during the march towards battle, filled with a mix of anticipation and trepidation, as well as observations on the leadership of various officers. Fuller's narrative sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the dynamics within the regiment and the evolution of military operations during the war. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
