In 3rd Brigade, Johnston's Division, of Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. The officer later served as a Confederate Chaplain in the field. The book traces the campaigns of the Army of Northern Virginia during the Civil War by this first-hand observer. The book is particularly valuable with regard to its account of the Gettysburg Campaign. McKim vividly recalls attending the University of Virginia in 1861 on the brink of the war and recalls the Secession flag on the rotunda and the excitement among students and faculty. He discusses the constitutional issues involved in the Civil War and the question of slavery. McKim provides a detailed account of his first experiences as a raw recruit, his departure from the University, and decision to enter the army. His account continues with a discussion of his double-quick to his first battle as part of the charge of the First Maryland and the associated victory Union forces. He discusses camp life, picket duty, his leadership, Winter quarters in Centreville and Fairfax, a Winter furlough and the state of the population. His account discussed the Campaign of 1862 regarding McClellan's strategy, the evacuation of Manassas, retreat to the Rappahannock, various engagements with the enemy, the severity of the weather and subsequent movements to join General Jackson in the Shenandoah Valley. His account discusses Jackson in detail and the opinions of him as well as the marches and battles as part of the Valley Campaign. After the defeat of Fremont, he continues his account of the Valley Campaign, Winter quarters and subsequent Chancellorsville Campaign in all it's details. He further disussed the Gettysburg Campaign, Battle of Stephenson' Depot, the march and and actions at Gettysburg, provides a narrative of General Steuart's Brigade at Gettysburg, and then his preparaton for the Chaplancy following the battle. At this point his narrative discusses his training as a Chaplain, rejoining the Army and service as a Confederate Chaplain in the Army in the field. He includes the details and his observations of General Early's Valley Campaign of 1864, the Winter Campaign of 1864-65 and the suffering of the men during this time. He discusses the close of the drama as Lee is put in command of all Confederate forces, high desertion, treatment of prisoners, and more. An excellent Confederate memoir that is loaded with action, insight and first-hand observations. This scarce account is among the most valuable Confederate soldier accounts. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
