Yours for the Union : the Civil War letters of John W. Chase, First Massachusetts Light Artillery

John W. Chase (Author), John S. Collier (Editor), Bonnie B. Collier (Editor)
"Yours for the Union takes us into the life and mind of John W. Chase during his service with the Army of the Potomac. Chase was a 36-year-old cabinetmaker from Roxbury and a widower with four small children when he enlisted as a private in the First Massachusetts Light Artillery. John Chase's frequent letters to his brother, Samuel S. Chase, were well written in plain language from the perspective of the common soldier."
