Synopsis:

A rich, firsthand-style portrait of the Hawkins Zouaves and their Civil War campaigns, from formation to notable marches and battles.

Derived from a detailed record of a Civil War regiment, this narrative follows how the Hawkins Zouaves rallied volunteers, endured tough drills, and pressed into action along key campaigns. It blends leadership, soldiering, and the daily life of a regiment through moments of achievement, sacrifice, and evolving devotion to duty. The book highlights the regiment’s bold actions, its moments of ceremony, and the lasting friendships forged in hardship.

Inside you’ll discover how a New York–led volunteer unit grew into a storied regiment, the planning behind operations, and the human side of wartime service. The work presents a vivid arc of courage, discipline, and camaraderie that defined these soldiers and their era.
