Synopsis

This book compiles the laws that provide compensation and pensions for military service and the families of soldiers and sailors during the American Civil War as well as relevant court cases arising from those laws. Covering statutes and cases relating to arrears of pay, bounties, disability pay, the enlisted dead, and pensions awarded to their survivors, this volume offers researchers a deep dive into the legal landscape of the Union Army and Navy. The author examines the reasoning behind the laws and decisions, setting them in the context of the era and exploring their impact on both soldiers and their families.
