Abstract | The collection consists of a five-volume diary kept by Thomas Lewis Ware, presumably of Washington, Ga., while he was a member of the 15th Georgia Infantry Regiment, Confederate States of America, serving in Virginia and in the Gettysburg campaign, during which he was killed; and an essay or address about Jews and early Christians. The diary consists of daily entries for the period 21 July 1861-2 July 1863. Entries are often detailed descriptions of military activity or observations on towns, countryside, and civilians. Final pages of the diary are in a different hand. |
