Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Regimental History: The One Hundred and Twenty-Fifth; New York State Volunteers A quarter of a century has passed since the regiment whose history is here recorded entered upon active service in the War of the Rebellion. Comrades who formerly moved side by side in duty and danger are rapidly dropping out in the march of life. It has seemed fitting that some special memorial of their service and heroism should be prepared, to be bequeathed to their children and children´s children. To one who shared with them the hardships of the march, the exposures of camp-life, and the dangers of the battle-field; who witnessed their life and valor amid all the vicissitudes of almost three years of service, the task of preparing this record is at once a sacred duty and an affectionate tribute to their manly worth. He writes as an eye-witness, at the extreme front, of their deeds in over twenty battles. In accordance with the desire of survivors of the regiment, its history will be set in a framework of general facts of the war. Its place may thus be traced relatively to the entire progress of the war. Its history runs as a single thread in the fabric of the war; but each separate thread was a vital part of the whole struggle, and had to do with presenting at the last to the world a flag unrent in any fibre of its starry folds. To write the history of a regiment or the biography of a man, it is not needful, as their valor and sacrifice are recorded, to exalt the subject by seeking to reflect upon other organizations or men.
