Leander Stillwell was typical of thousands of Northern boys answering the call for volunteers during the Civil War. He tells of his war experience in straightforward, plain narrative. His time in the war was typical and well detailed in this book. He tells of being "mortified" when his regiment missed two battles because it had been left to guard a town in Tennessee, but added "The common soldier can only obey orders". He returned from the war to finish law school and open a thriving law practice. In 1883 he was elected judge of Kansas' 7th District Court. He never forgot his Civil War service, later writing a prize winning article for his stirring account of the Battle of Shiloh.
