A history of Lumsden's Battery, C.S.A

By George Little

One battery. A war's roar. Guns, smoke, and hard choices. George Little's A history of Lumsden's Battery, C.S.A. brings you inside a famed slice of confederate field artillery, tracing the unit's movements and fortunes across the American Civil War 1861-1865. Written as a focused civil war unit chronicle, it gathers names, actions, and context into an artillery battery service record that readers can consult and return to. For anyone seeking a civil war regimental history beyond generals and grand strategy, this lumsdens battery history offers the texture of camp life, marching orders, and the practical realities of gun crews in the Confederate States Army. Valued among civil war artillery history and confederate regimental histories, the book stands as a period-minded piece of remembrance and documentation: part narrative, part reference, and a useful bridge between battlefield history and family memory. It reads cleanly for the curious newcomer, yet functions as a civil war reference guide for researchers, local historians, and those wanting a reenactor unit reference grounded in a complete unit history. Little's work captures how a battery fitted into larger operations without losing the human scale: officers and men, discipline, endurance, and the steady labour behind each shot. As a civil war reference guide, it supports comparative reading alongside other confederate regimental histories and modern scholarship. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
