The march of the 18th

In 1864 the fate of the Union Army's Veterans Reserve Corps rested on the courage of its soldiers crippled by the war, whose only desire was dignified service, even after harrowing personal sacrifice. The Veterans Reserve Corps was created during the Civil War to allow invalid soldiers to serve effectively, thereby freeing the able-bodied for combat. The March of the 18th is a novel wrapped around the true events of one invalid regiment forgotten as a footnote in our nations history. -- AbeBooks.com
