In the summer of 1862, carpenter William Bluffton Miller left his
wife and infant son and enlisted in Company K, 75th Indiana
Volunteer Infantry Regiment. He began a detailed diary that for
three years would record his daily activities as well as his
thoughts and observations on his own experiences and the larger
issues of the divisive war. Amidst the hard marching, gnawing
hunger, loneliness, and personal loss, Miller and his fellow
soldiers experienced the thrill of victory and the solace found in
the camaraderie of the unit. Miller's varied experiences offer
valuable insights into a number of aspects of the Civil War. He
began his service as a hospital steward in Gallatin, Tennessee, and
he vividly depicts the heart-wrenching efforts of doctors, nurses,
and fellow soldiers to save and comfort the ill and wounded. In his
later service. Miller records the horrific sights from some of the
war's bloodiest battlefields, including Chickamaugua, where he was
wounded. Upon his recovery, Miller returned to duty as a general's
orderly during the Atlanta campaign and later participated in
Sherman's March to the Sea and campaign through the Carolinas. Of
equal interest are Miller's political observations and personal
experiences. The diary shows how Miller's ideas about the war,
particularly the issue of slavery, changed during the conflict.
Democratic and Copperhead sympathy in the North actually
strengthened his commitment to the Union effort, and Miller grew
from a man who espoused the racial prejudices of his time into an
antislavery advocate. Taken as a whole, "Fighting for Liberty and
Right is a glimpse of the daily trials of the common soldier in a
divided country and a compellingportrait of a man who valued
freedom for himself and for all his countrymen.
