New Irish Brigade Reenactor

Joined
Feb 23, 2015
Hi. I just joined this forum andam getting into reenacting. The unit I am joining is the 88th New York Co. B. I'm just wondering what are some good books out there to read about the Irish in the war, maybe specifically about the Irish Brigade? I aks this so I can have a good impression at events and when people ask me questions at events. Thanks.

A good start would be with our member Damian Shiels, who writes the blog Irish in the American Civil War, and last year published a fantastic book on the subject.

Hi! I have a few pieces that reference the 88th New York and Irish Brigade generally on the site that might give you an idea of some of their experiences:
