"What a great book. Kudos to you. The choice of letters gives the
reader a real sense of the pathos and suffering felt on both sides."
- Al Cormier, Town Historian, Salem, New York
"It is the most enjoyable book I've ever read about the Civil War. I have
read it over and over again, more than any other Civil War book."
- Park visitor at the Resaca Battlefield Historic Site
Our fundraising book, Letters Home: The 123rd New York Infantry in the Atlanta Campaign, is a collection of letters and diary excerpts from soldiers of the 123rd New York Infantry that were written during the Atlanta Campaign and the March to the Sea. The book is a chronological glimpse into the day to day life, the hardships, and the extreme horrors of battle that the everyday soldier experienced during that time. The book is paperback, 8 1/2 x 11 inches in size, 80 pages, and contains over 85 letters and diary excerpts, plus 26 black and white photos, maps, and illustrations. Many of the letters have never before been published.

Proceeds from the book will go to the Friends of Resaca Battlefield, a grassroots, non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of the Resaca Battlefield.
