| Summary | "The History of Battery H First Regiment Rhode Island Light Artillery in the War" by Earl Fenner is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work chronicles the experiences and events involving Battery H, a volunteer unit from Rhode Island, during the American Civil War. It details the battery's formation, training, and various engagements throughout the conflict, focusing on the sacrifices and camaraderie of its members. The opening of the book recounts the organization of Battery H in 1862, highlighting its roots and connection to Rhode Island's military history. Fenner describes the initial training at Camp Mauran and the transition to active service as the battery was called to Washington, D.C. Various commanders, including Captain Jeffrey Hazard, are introduced, along with the unit's early challenges, including recruitment struggles and the tension with other regiments. This sets the stage for a narrative that will explore the profound experiences of the battery as it navigates the trials of war. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
