“Co. Aytch,” Maury Grays, First Tennessee Regiment is Samuel R. Watkins’s firsthand memoir of serving as a Confederate infantryman during the American Civil War. Writing years after the conflict, Watkins recalls the campaigns, battles, marches, camps, hunger, exhaustion, fear, and comradeship experienced by an ordinary soldier in Company H of the First Tennessee Regiment.His narrative follows the regiment through major operations in the Western Theater, including Shiloh, Perryville, Stones River, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, Atlanta, Franklin, Nashville, and the war’s final months in North Carolina. Rather than presenting a formal military history, Watkins offers personal memories, battlefield anecdotes, humor, sorrow, and vivid observations of daily army life. He describes confusion as readily as courage and repeatedly returns to the terrible human cost paid by soldiers on both sides.The memoir is an important primary source, but it is also a subjective Confederate account shaped by the author’s loyalties and the attitudes of his time. Listeners should approach it critically while recognizing its unusual immediacy and detail. This audiobook will interest readers of American history, Civil War memoirs, military biography, and accounts of warfare told from the perspective of common soldiers.Copyright Mentor New York アート 世界 文学史・文学批評
