BookChat: From the Wilderness to Appomattox by Edward Altemos
Dec 4th, 2023EmergingCivilWar.com interviews Edward Altemos, author of From the Wilderness to Appomattox: The Fifteenth New York Heavy Artillery in the Civil War.
“…the contributions of the Fifteenth—along with the other heavy artillery regiments that fought as infantry in the Army of the Potomac from May of 1864—cannot be underestimated. These large units infused new blood into a drained and depleted army, and, once acquainted with their new role as infantry, consistently fought hard and well—in the process sustaining horrific losses.”—Emerging Civil War
