| Abstract |
"Drawing on letters, journals, memoirs and personnel records, this history follows the civilian-soldiers from their mustering-in to the war's final moments at Appomattox. The 30th North Carolina had the distinction of firing at Abraham Lincoln on July 12, 1864, and firing the last regimental volley before the surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia"-- Provided by publisher. |
