The Civil War Diary of
Jacob Marshall
Jacob Marshall and his comrades in Company K of the 5th
Michigan Volunteer Infantry fought in Civil War battles throughout
Maryland and Virginia in the famous Army of the Potomac. Civil War
author Richard Hall here recreates what life was like for the common
(and not so common) soldier both in camp life and as they slogged
through rain, mud, freezing weather, fought pitched battles, and
suffered fearsome casualties.
Although a novelette, this book tells the story of a
Michigan soldier of an unusual kind in the form of a diary,
recording the humor, pathos, violence, and peaceful interludes in
the daily life of a Civil War soldier. Jacob is wounded at the
Battle of the Wilderness, recuperates in a hospital, then is sent
back to the front to rejoin his regiment where an unknown fate
awaits him. Jacob also has a secret life that he hides from the
officers and the army leaders, lending a surprise twist to the
story.

On the web site of
the American Council of Learned Societies in 1999, Lyde Cullen Sizer
states: "The
best book analyzing The Woman in Battle (memoir of Loreta Janeta
Velazquez) and its claims is Richard Hall's Patriots in Disguise:
Women Warriors of the Civil War (1993)."
