In Remembering the Civil War, historians Michael Barton and Charles Kupfer carefully select excerpts from the memoirs of key participants and weave them together to tell the story of the war in a single volume. Contributors include Union generals Ulysses Grant, James Longstreet, Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, W.T. Sherman, Abner Doubleday, and Philip Sheridan. Confederate authors include Robert E. Lee, Cpl. Sam Watkins, Lt. John W. Worsham, Edward Porter Alexander, Capt. John Wilkinson, and Jefferson Davis. Diaries and letters provide soldiers' perspectives of what fighting was like on the ground.
