Reviews
"Williams's writings are quite compelling and interesting. The author not only tells us what happened but includes his own personal feelings at the time. It also fills a void in our knowledge of the duties of the Pioneer units in the Southern Armies." -- Confederate Veteran, "Williams's writings are quite compelling and interesting.

Synopsis
A different sort of Civil War diary. " M]ost intriguing . . . for it is the diary of a Confederate who spent most of his military service as a noncombatant . . . a soldier who was also an outspoken opponent of military life and war in general and of the Civil War in particular. Hiram Smith Williams was a native Northerner who moved to the South shortly before the war but enlisted as a private in the 40th Alabama Infantry. . . . This truly unique diary, which is enlivened by Williams's keen eye for detail, a certain literary flair, and his frank assessment of the Confederate army and cause, also includes extensive notes and a perceptive introduction." -- Civil War History, A different sort of Civil War diary.
