The product of over a decade of research, Lesley J. Gordon's A
Broken Regiment recounts the tragic history of one of the Civil
War's most ill-fated Union military units. organised in the late
summer of 1862, the 16th Connecticut Volunteer Infantry was
unprepared for battle a month later, when it entered the fight at
Antietam. The results were catastrophic: nearly a quarter of the
men were killed or wounded, and Connecticut's 16th panicked and
fled the field. After years of fighting, the regiment surrendered
en masse in 1864. This unit's complex history amid the interplay of
various, and often competing, perspectives results in a fascinating
and heartrending story.
