248 pp. All for the Union is the eloquent and moving diary of Elisha Hunt Rhodes, who enlisted into the Union Army as a private in 1861 and left it four years later as a 23-year-old lieutenant colonel after fighting hard and honorably in battles from Bull Run to Appomattox. Excerpted on the PBS-TV series The Civil War, his accounts of those campaigns remain outstanding for thier clarity and detail. Rhodes's word reveal the motivation of a common Yankee foot soldier, an otherwise ordinary young man who endured the rigors of combat and exhausting marcches, short rations, fear, and homesickness for a salary of $13 a month and the satisfaction of giving "all for the union."
