Gallagher -- Preface -- War at our own doors -- Our hearts were filled with new hope: movement to combat -- My best achievement: June 15, 1864 -- More hard fighting and many more lives must be lost: June 16-17, 1864 -- We have done all that it is possible for men to do and must be resigned to the result: June 18, 1864 -- Our work here progresses slowly: Grant's second offensive -- We were fortunate to get back at all: from White House Landing to First Ream's Station -- The most disagreeable human habitation left upon this sin-stricken earth: life in Petersburg, Summer 1864 -- Strangled in dust and scorched in the sun: army operations, late June to mid-July -- I have accomplished one of the great things of this war: construction of the mine and first deep bottom -- This day was the jubilee of fiends in human shape, and without souls: the Union attacks on July 30 -- A perfect hell of blood: the Confederates regain the Crater. | |
