The regiment was formed in August 1862 and finally disbanded in June 1865. It suffered heavy losses partially because they were largely untrained volunteers. Blakeslee, the author, was a member of this regiment who kept a personal diary. The book is composed mainly of these memories since very little else was written about this regiment.
