Vivid and lively letters from a young Confederate in Lee’s Army.
In the spring of 1861 a 22yearold Alabamian did what many of his
friends and colleagues were doing he joined the Confederate Army as
a volunteer. The first of his family to enlist, William Cowan
McClellan, who served as a private in the 9th Alabama Infantry
regiment, wrote hundreds of letters throughout the war, often
penning for friends who could not write home for themselves. In the
letters collected in John C. Carter’s volume, this young soldier
comments on his feelings toward his commanding officers, his
attitude toward military discipline and camp life, his disdain for
the western Confederate armies, and his hopes and fears for the
future of the Confederacy. McClellan’s letters also contain vivid
descriptions of camp life, battles, marches, picket duty, and
sickness and disease in the army. The correspondence between
McClellan and his family dealt with separation due to war as well
as with other wartime difficulties such as food shortages,
invasion, and occupation. The letters also show the rise and fall
of morale on both the home front and on the battlefield, and how
they were closely intertwined. Remarkable for their humour,
literacy, and matteroffact banter, the letters reveal the attitude
a common soldier in the Army of Northern Virginia had toward the
daytoday activity and progression of the war. John C. Carter
includes helpful appendixes that list the letters chronologically
and offer the regimental roster, casualty/enlistment totals,
assignments, and McClellan’s personal military record.
