188327966Cincinnati:: Douglass Brothers & Payne 1883. Second Printing of the First Edition. A Fine tight copy in green cloth binding with bright gilt to cover and spine. John L. Ransom was born in 1843. He joined the Union Army during the American Civil War in November 1862 and served as Quartermaster of Company A 9th Michigan Volunteer Cavalry. In 1863 Ransom was captured in Tennessee and taken to Andersonville Georgia. During his imprisonment he kept a diary of his experiences. On the 6th July 1864 he wrote: "Boiling hot camp reeking with filth and no sanitary privileges; men dying off over 140 per day. Stockade enlarged taking in eight or ten more acres giving us more room and stumps to dig up for wood to cook with. Jimmy Devers has been a prisoner over a year and poor boy will probably die soon." Of the 49485 prisoners who entered the camp nearly 13000 died from disease and malnutrition. This is Ransom's stunning first-hand account of stay in Andersonville.
