The Irish Brigade and Its Campaigns by Lawrence Kohl
This account of New York's 69th Regiment, the "Irish Brigade", describes how they were engaged in nearly every major action of the eastern theatre of the American Civil War. Their valour is still acknowledged each St Patrick's Day, when they lead the Parade up Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
“A book of interest and real value. . . Dr. Kohl’s excellent introduction discusses the Irish in America in the decades before the war and their reasons for supporting the Union.” * —Civil War *
Lawrence Frederick Kohl is Associate Professor of History at the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, and series editor of the Irish in the Civil War.
