This collection documents the Civil War from the soldier's perspective as well as the home front, detailing the day-to-day life of a Union soldier, with vivid descriptions of camp life, marches, battles, aftermath of battles, upheaval of the ranks, morale issues, and disillusionment; and from the perspective of family and friends not involved in the fighting, but actively offering opinions of politics and military tactics, and expressing their fear and worry about their loved ones.

"Harry Lorrequer's Log" or "Harry Lorrequer's Log-Book", undated

Firestone LibraryManuscripts DivisionEdmund Downey Manuscripts of Charles Lever's Writings, circa 1890-1910
In his preface, Downey writes that Lever planned in 1839 a volume of tales and essays to be called "Harry Lorrequer's Log," building on the success of The Confessions of Harry Lorrequer (1839) but James McGlashan, his publisher, was not keen, preferring to keep Lever at work on what would be Charles O'Malley (1841). Downey continues, "The stories and sketches in this volume were written between the years 1830 and 1847. They appeared as unsigned contributions to Irish periodicals, and they exhibit Lever in most of his early, and wayward, phases."
