light wear to the book and price-clipped jacket which is rubbed. First printing, full number line. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Hard Cover. A gifted amateur historian, Coffin provides ample material on the Vermont background of the men who went to war, and vivid, readable accounts of their presence in virtually every major battle in the eastern theater. He also covers Vermonters who became POWs and those at home who had the novel experience of being raided by Confederate guerrillas operating across the Canadian border. A sound and valuable addition to Civil War and regional history collections.
