Civil War Books and Authors looks at High-Bounty Men in the Army of the Potomac: Reclaiming Their Honor by Edwin P. Rutan II.
“Edwin Rutan’s High-Bounty Men in the Army of the Potomac is a thoughtful, compassionate, and convincing exploration of the perceptions and realities commonly attached to the men comprising the massive body of late-war Union recruits that not only sustained the fighting strength of the Army of the Potomac during the bloody months of 1864–65 but were indispensable in finally defeating Robert E. Lee’s powerfully resilient Army of Northern Virginia.”—Civil War Books and Authors
