From archives, the kind of book around 1,000 veterans said " You know what would be great? "- full title is " Campfire Sketches and Battlefield Echoes ", Google Archives. https://archive.org/stream/campfiresketche00derbgoog#page/n268/mode/1up
Random , not very comprehensive and not at all chronological it's still a delightful collection. Veterans, North and South contributed, culling from their service some memory they felt worthy of interest, be it from battle, camp, march or brush with fame. Or death. Published 1888 long gone is the invective. What's left are memories, wisdom, humor and regret for comrads left behind under distant battlefield.
Snippets, in case anyone can be further tempted to the link.
