"Pittsburgh During the American Civil War, 1860-1865," by Arthur B. Fox. Originally published in 2002, by Mechling Bookbindery, Chicora, PA 16025. http://www.mechlingbooks.com
Hardback, gold incrested front cover, 236 pages, with illustrations, photos, appendix, credits and bibliography. "Having 'grown-up' in the Pittsburgh area myself drew me to review this book, if only for sentimental personal reasons. And indeed, I am glad I did. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania was instrumental in contributing to the eventual victory over the Southern States, both in contributing her native sons who will donate their lives, as well as exercising her manufacturing muscle that would extend far into the next century! If one considers the fact that following current Routes 22-30 West abvout 25 miles to Weirton, this buffer separating PA from Ohio was indeed once part of the Confederacy! Little thought is given to this day that the Confederacy, prior to the (some argue) illegal annexation of another state with the creation of another (West Virginia), indeed proves it vital that this area at once be neutralized. This book by Arthur B. Fox is indeed a labor of love. He has thoroughly researchd and documented this important time both in our nation as well as the development of this industrious mill town as well as her sons. Many of her sons will 'donate' blood for the cause. Others will 'donate' lungs working in the treacherous mills that built the Northern military machine. Fox's book includes the Camps of Allegheny County, blast furnances, rollings mills, foundries, hospitals, fortifications, heck the same thing that today makes Pittsburgh so unique! Buy this book.

51^st Pennsylvania Regiment Volunteer Infantry....fact...."This distinguished regiment is included as one of William F. Fox's (circa 1889) top 300 Union Fighting Regiments."

51^st Pennsylvania, "History of the Fifty-first of Pennsylvania Volunteers, P.V. and V.V.," by Thomas H. Parker. Originally published in 1869 by King & Baird, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the 51st was one of Fox's Top 300 Fighting Regiments, as they earned their stripes by shedding their life sustaining blood in Union General Ambrose Burnside's North Carolina Expedition, returning to Virginia soil in time for the infamous 2nd and last battle of Manassas. They were one of the Federal units that attempted storming the lower bridge at Antietam (later renamed Burnside's Bridge), suffering over 100 casualties. Later, they fought and shed blood with the 9th Corps in Mississippi and Tennessee, and finally under the direction of General Ulysses Simpson Grant in the Virginia Campaign. An original copy of this book may prove difficult to locate a copy for your personal library. A 1998 reproduction by Butternut and Blue will cost you $ 45.00.

83^rd Pennsylvania, "History of the Eighty-third Pennsylvania Regiment Volunteers," by Captain Amos M. Judson, Company E, 83rd Pennsylvania. Amos M. Judson enlisted on July 29th, 1861, commissioned a 1st Lieutenant on August 26th, 1861, following his three months' service with the Erie Regiment. He served a full three years with the 83rd Pennsylvania, spanning most of the Army of the Potomac's active operations, save the last seven months. His writing style is flowing, easy to read, humorous, at times even satirical, and especially graphic. The Erie Regiment was mustered out of service in July, 1861. Soon after, Colonel John McLane raised a 3 years' regiment, drawing many of the men back that had previously served in the old 3 months' service. Most of the men of the 83rd Pennsylvania who came from Pennsylvania's northwest counties, were a tough mixture of yeoman farmers, lumberjacks, and Lake Erie fishermen. That hard boned background proved itself on the battlefield, where the 83rd suffered more deaths and mortal wounds than any other Federal regiment, except for the 5th New Hampshire Infantry. An actual Civil War vet, Judson's memoir (first published in 1865, at Erie, Pennsylvania,) is one of the first, if not the very first, of the regimental histories to appear. The 83rd is remembered for standing shoulder to shoulder with Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain and the 20th Maine on Little Round Top, Gettysburg. It also had a major role to play at Gaines' Mill, Malvern Hill, and at 2nd Bull Run. As a participant and prior to subsequent contemporaries to exhault Chamberlain's feats, Judson has a keen eye in his tribute to Colonel Strong Vincent who was Chamberlain's commander and was mortally wounded at Little Round Top, who is more often forgotten. Though slender, this scarce work is detailed and written with literary skills and a sense of humor. The Erie Regiment , served from the Virginia Peninsula to Appomattox CourtHouse, losing heavily at Malvern Hill and at Spotsylvania. Brigaded under COLONEL STRONG VINCENT and Joshua Chamberlain (3rd, 1st, V.) they were instrumental in repulsing the attack on Little Round Top. 160 pages photos, index, cost of $ 30.00.
