Based on over ten years of research where I revisited camps, battlefields, and prisons, I wrote this fact-based novel in the first person as if I were Private Hiram Terman of the 82nd Ohio Infantry. It was quite an experience, almost a metamorphosis of sorts.
Walt Whitman cautioned us that “the real war will never get in the books” and that “the fervid atmosphere and typical events of those years are in danger of being totally forgotten.” This book is an attempt to capture some of the “fervid atmosphere and typical events” in the Civil War experience of one young Ohioan, and it succeeds admirably in this reviewer’s opinion.
Private Hiram Terman was captured at Gettysburg, sent to Andersonville--and survived. The author, who is Hiram's descendant, revisits the camps, battlegrounds, and prisons, to write as if he were Private Terman of the 82nd Ohio Infantry. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
