The Last Full Measure by Richard Moe is subtitled The Life and Death of the First Minnesota Volunteers. It includes a foreword by James MacGregor Burns. The First Minnesota Volunteers, the first regiment offered to Lincoln after the fall of Fort Sumter, served in virtually every major battle fought in the eastern theater during the first 3 years of the Civil War. This is the story of the Army of the Potomac during that period. From the defeat at Bull Run to being shaped into an Army by McClellan and the frustration with him, to the lack of defeating Robert E. Lee and finally the costly victory at Gettysburg, the book draws on diaries, letters, and more to tell the story. It keeps close the human side of war in the definitive history of the First Minnesota Volunteers.
