Pages : 494
Book Description
Boomer: In the Theater of Fearful Tragedies is a nonfiction account of the life of Colonel George B. Boomer, a little-known bridge builder and combat veteran who served in the Civil War of the United States. He was the son of a Baptist minister from Sutton, Massachusetts, who struggled with his Christian faith while searching for God's plan for his life. While his formal education was limited by a youthful disability of the eyes, he became a self-taught master bridge builder who learned to speak multiple languages while living in the state of Missouri. However, he is most known for his skills as a military commander who received compliments from Ulysses S. Grant. Colonel Boomer was the commander of the Twenty-Sixth Missouri Regiment, and he served in the western theater of the war. He was actively involved in Pope's campaign against Island Number Ten, and he suffered severe wounds at the Battle of Iuka, Mississippi. His greatest military accomplishment occurred during the pivotal battle of Champion's Hill, and it is likely that the actions of his brigade were largely responsible for the Union victory. Boomer endured tragedies in his civilian life and his life in the military at the hands ambitious political figures who brought him great grief. However, he would ultimately find his life's meaning in a peach orchard just outside Vicksburg, Mississippi. His selfless actions saved the lives of many of the men under his command. His veteran sacrifice for his country needs to be remembered.

History of the 77th Illinois Volunteer Infantry

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
Excerpt from History of the 77th Illinois Volunteer Infantry: Sept; 2, 1862, July 10, 1865 King Solomon made a centre shot when he said "of making many books there is no end," and yet there is always "a long felt want" for another. If it were not so the book trade would be unprofitable. Acting on the belief that there is a a gap somewhere to be filled, this book is written. It was first projected about twenty years ago - soon after the fall of Vicksburg. The writer had been keeping a record of the events in which the Seventy-Seventh participated, while those events were transpiring, and while all the circumstances were fresh in the mind. But he did not rely alone upon his own sightseeing or his own judgment. Other members of the regiment, from that day to this, have rendered valuable assistance. Among these may be mentioned General D. P. Grier, Major J. M. McCulloeh, Lieutenant Henry P. Ayres and J. H. Snyder, Musician of Co. "I." The latter kept a daily record from first to last, noting all the occurrences worth noting, with great care and accuracy. To him I am indebted for the use of his voluminous and interesting journals.
