For the first time, William C. Winter presents the story of the 1st Missouri Infantry, a Confederate regiment, through the complete works of Captain Joseph Boyce. Less than two decades after the war, Boyce began presenting his history of the regiment to the Southern Historical and Benevolent Society of St. Louis, which appeared as a serialized account in the "Missouri Republican." Boyce s narrative addresses his service from his involvement as a member of the Missouri Volunteer Militia in the Camp Jackson massacre on May 10, 1861, until the regiment s surrender at Fort Blakely near Mobile, Alabama, in April 1865. Winter includes introductions for each chapter, extensive footnotes, and other writings by Boyce.
