Synopsis
Inside the History of Battery H, First Regiment Rhode Island Light Artillery
This concise, portrait‑style history profiles the men who served with Battery H during the Civil War, from enlistment through muster out. It weaves biographical sketches with key moments of service, including drills, marches, and battles around Washington, Petersburg, and beyond. The focus is on the people who wore the battery’s badge and how their experiences shaped the unit’s legacy.
The book presents a series of individual stories—birthplaces, careers, and community ties—intertwined with the battery’s discipline, leadership, and acts of endurance. You’ll read about captains, lieutenants, and enlisted men as they move from training grounds to front lines, sharing the challenges they faced and the honors they earned. The narrative also covers the unit’s command changes, postwar affiliations, and the ongoing efforts to preserve its history for future generations.What you’ll experience
