Notes of a Private is a memoir written by John Milton Hubbard, a soldier who served in the American Civil War. The book is a collection of Hubbard's personal experiences and observations during his time as a private in the Union Army, from his enlistment in 1862 to his discharge in 1865. Hubbard's memoir provides a unique perspective on the war, as he was not a high-ranking officer or a well-known figure, but rather an ordinary soldier. He describes the daily life of a soldier, including the harsh conditions, the camaraderie among the troops, and the horrors of battle. The book also includes Hubbard's thoughts on the causes and consequences of the war, as well as his opinions on the political and social issues of the time. He reflects on the impact of the war on the nation and on his own life, and offers insights into the challenges and sacrifices faced by those who fought in the conflict. Overall, Notes of a Private is a valuable historical document that provides a personal and engaging account of the American Civil War from the perspective of an ordinary soldier.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In writing this book the author has relied almost entirely on his own memory for such reminiscences, sketches and portraitures of character as are printed on its pages. He served the entire period of the Civil War in Company E, Seventh Tennessee Cavalry, which regiment was commanded successively by Colonels W. II. Jackson, J. G. Stocks and W. L. Duckworth, assisted by Lieutenant-C olonel W. F. Taylor and Major C. C. Clay. Few private soldiers saw more of the war, or had better opportunities for observation. His company served in parts of five States, and traveled thousands of miles under the orders of many different generals. He believes that a careful perusal of these pages will afford entertainment to people who admire Southern valor, and amusement and instruction to girls and boys who will, perhaps, be stimulated thereby to read more pretentious books concerning the greatest war of modern times. This belief and a keen desire to preserve in permanent form some sort of memento for his own and the descendants of the members of the old company have chiefly prompted him in undertaking a task which, while a work of love, has required much labor to accomplish. He trusts that in the form and style of the book and in the manner of presentation of the varied list of subjects, even the partiality of friends will find little to excuse. 378 Lauderdale Street, Memphis, Term. June 1, 1909.
