Excerpt from History of the Sixtieth Regiment: New York State Volunteers, From the Commencement of Its Organization in July, 1861, to Its Public Reception at Ogdensburgh as a Veteran Command, January 7th, 1864
The following pages have been written chiefly from a desire to gratify the families and friends of those connected with the 60th Regiment, by placing before them a true account of the varied vicissitudes through which that command has passed.
So much of the book as claims to be a statement of fact, may be relied upon as being strictly true. The opinions of men and of measures, expressed from time to time, are my own, and no one else should be held responsible for them. Although it is my belief that, in the main, they are also the opinions of a large majority of the regiment, and, in some cases, express a unanimous conviction, I wish it to be understood that, except where it may otherwise be positively stated, I do not offer them as the speculations of any one besides myself.
The events herein recorded, as transpiring prior to the 20th of February, 1863, are those which, for the most part, came under my own observation, which fact, I beg the reader to bear in mind, as accounting for the egotism, which I knew not how to avoid, in giving a narrative of personal experiences.
