Marcus Woodcock

The book is written by Marcus Woodcock who was one of the soldiers of the 9th Kentucy. He was a native of Tennessee but went to Kentucky to fight for the Union. Since this isn't a regimental history of the 9th Kentucy this places more importance on this work. Woodcock does a good job on relating the facts on many of the battles where the force was split such as a Chickamauga where the 9th was routed and part of the regiment fought on Snodgrass Hill while most of the regiment escapted to Chattanooga. The book is an important part of our history.… (altro)
