From the first Buffalo enlistments in April 1861 to the final mustering out in May 1863, the Twenty-first Regiment of New York State Volunteers marches across the page with hard, human clarity. Names, dates, lives on line. J. Harrison Mills assembles a vivid civil war regimental history that is also a dependable military history reference book: a union infantry unit history grounded in civil war primary sources, with a company-by-company soldier roster and careful enlistment and discharge records. Alongside narrative context, you will find a military muster roll reference, a precise field and staff list, and the union army regiments roster details that let readers track who served, when they joined, and how their service concluded. It is an indispensable companion for civil war genealogy research and for anyone tracing buffalo new york volunteers through the wider story of the new york state infantry. More than battlefield memory, this is a record of organisation, duty, and community under strain, preserving the texture of volunteer soldiering in the Union cause. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, ideal for the casually curious reader who wants a gripping unit portrait and for the serious collector who values authoritative documentation. Compiled soon after the conflict, Mills's work captures a generation still within living memory, offering historians and descendants a trail of evidence and a moving sense of loss.
