The Irish Brigade in the Civil War
The 69th New York and Other Irish Regiments of the Army of the Potomac. Despite its distinguished record and key role in the war, no detailed history of the brigade has been written in 130 years. Made up largely of New York Irishmen, the brigade made a decisive contribution to the Union victory at Antietam, suffered fearfully in a gallant charge at Fredericksburg, and made a famous stand in the Wheatfield on the second day at Gettysburg. 282 pgs., 6"x 8¾", sfbd.

Memoirs of Chaplain Life
Three Years with the Irish Brigade in the Army of the Potomac. Lawrence Frederick Kohl, ed. For three long years, William Corby ministered to the men of the Irish Brigade, enduring their hardships, sharing their dangers, and serving their spiritual needs. These memoirs are not primarily an account of battles and skirmishes. Nor are they merely a religious tract. They are a very human account of life in a Civil War army. 450 pgs., 6"x 9", hdbd.
