"I left three years ago to do my part in putting down this unholy
rebellion." By 1861, Charles Adam Wetherbee had officially traded
his comfortable life as a college student for one that included
drafty Sibley tents, long marches in weather and wilderness of all
kinds, and bloodshed. A Union infantryman with the Thirty-Fourth
Illinois Volunteer Regiment, he survived the battles of Shiloh,
Stones River, Liberty Gap, Atlanta, and others. One hundred years
later, long after Wetherbee had died, a tattered and faded diary
was found at a home in Lawrence, Kansas. The homeowner opened its
pages and was astonished to discover that Wetherbee had penned
every detail of his daily life during the Civil War. Wetherbee's
diary presents a realistic view of what a soldier's life entailed,
as the reader is thrust into the firsthand drama of the Civil War
as it was endured by enlisted participants. Get a true sense of
what the Civil War was like from someone who was there to witness
an Unholy Rebellion.
