From recruits in 1861 to battle-hardened survivors of 1865, the men of the Sixteenth Tennessee Volunteers marched at the heart of the Western struggle in the war between the States. Their story is told here by comrade and chronicler Thomas A. Head with unflinching clarity and compassion. The old voices still carry. Blending vivid recollection with detail, Head traces the regiment through the army of Tennessee campaigns, placing Tennessee volunteers in battle within the broader sweep of American Civil War history and the 1861 1865 Tennessee Confederacy. More than a dry confederate regimental history, this is a ground-level portrait of marches, skirmishes, privation and endurance, written by one who shared the hardships. It stands as a confederate soldier narrative classic, essential to any serious western theater civil war library and to every civil war history collection. As a deeply informed military unit history book and a valuable reference for military historians, it is equally prized by family researchers: rich in names, dates and impressions that illuminate civil war genealogy research and community memory across Tennessee and the South. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. For the casual reader of history, the student of the Army of Tennessee, or the collector of American Civil War history, Head's chronicle offers enduring insight into comradeship, loss and the meaning of service in a shattered land.
