The 83rd Pennsylvania Infantry suffered the second highest number
of battle deaths of all the Union regiments, in every theater,
throughout the course of the Civil War. They endured decimation at
the battles of the Seven Days, Second Bull Run, Fredericksburg and
Chancellorsville. Nevertheless, this hardy and determined unit was
able to overcome loss, defeat and heartache through their enduring
defense and preservation of the Union line during the pivotal
battle of Gettysburg.This book offers the first-ever comprehensive
history of the 83rd Pennsylvania. It combines official war records,
personal remembrances of veterans of the regiment, information
derived from opposing Confederates, and secondary sources to
produce a remarkable story of leadership, endurance, hardship and
triumph. Actions and events are analyzed from multiple viewpoints.
Overall, a detailed and thorough picture is offered of the 83rd's
contribution to the preservation of the Union and defeats.
