Letters home to Sarah

Description:

"Forgotten for more than a century in an old cardboard box, these are the letters of Guy Carlton Taylor, a farmer who served in the Thirty-Sixth Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry Regiment in the American Civil War. From March 25, 1864 to July 9, 1865, Taylor wrote 165 letters home to his wife Sarah and their son Charley. The letters show... Taylor's transformation from a lonely and somewhat disgruntled infantryman to a thoughtful commentator on the greater ideals of the war." --Book jacket.
