Behind every regiment number sits a student name. Names. Dates. Lives in uniform. Roll Of The Graduates And Undergraduates Of Amherst College records, with sober precision, the Amherst men who entered the Union cause during the War of the Rebellion. Compiled to preserve memory and verify service, it reads like a roll call from chapel to camp. Part civil war service roster, part amherst college alumni register, it gathers a union military personnel roll that turns abstract history into individuals you can trace. Drawn from the Amherst College Civil War experience, the entries point you towards units, service and sacrifice across the union army and navy, from massachusetts union volunteers to far-flung theatres. As a piece of post-war record-keeping, it shows how communities counted their losses and honoured their volunteers, line by line. For family historians it functions as a dependable genealogy reference book; for scholars and enthusiasts it is a civil war research reference anchored in the American Civil War 1861-1865. Read straight through, it is also a quiet portrait of college students in uniform and a community answering a national crisis. As a union regimental roster collection, it belongs beside other complete civil war rosters, yet its collegiate focus gives it uncommon intimacy. 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. Ideal for historians, alumni, and collectors of Civil War Americana worldwide.
