Description

A Civil War veteran and commander of the only regiment from Ohio to go to Cuba, Curtis V. Hard has written a personal and compelling account of the last days of the Spanish American war. The regiment arrived only a few days before the Armistice but “the value of Hard’s account lies elsewhere- in the story he tells of the men in his regiment.” A very good copy, in dust jacket (147 pages, 19 illustrations, notes, bibliography, index).
