"In this stunning and well-researched book, Kevin Levin catches the new waves of the study of memory, black soldiers, and the darker underside of the Civil War as well as anyone has... Levin is both superb scholar and public historian, showing us a piece of the real war that does now get into the books, as well as into site interpretation."

David Blight, Author of Race and Reunion

I find it interesting that the captain originally in charge of the company in which my great great grandfather served had the same last name as the captain of the vessel on which my great great great grandparents emigrated from Germany to America. Don’t know yet if the two Captain Hubbards were related, but I wouldn’t be all that surprised at this point. The one in charge of Company F was court martialed and dismissed in the early stages of the Camden Expedition.
