Regimental Losses in the American Civil War 1861-1865 is a large statistical study by Union veteran William F. Fox that quantifies combat and mortality in Union regiments using official federal and state military records. The opening chapters analyze the nature of Civil War casualties - distinguishing killed in action died of wounds and died of disease; calculating maximum numbers and percentages killed in single regiments and battles; and comparing losses among different arms of service infantry cavalry artillery and among white volunteer regular and United States Colored Troops units. Subsequent chapters identify what Fox terms the three hundred fighting regiments giving each a short historical sketch a list of its principal engagements and detailed tables of its killed and mortally wounded by company together with total enrollment and percentage lost - designed to show which organizations saw the heaviest and most continuous fighting. Much of the volume is devoted to regiment-by-regiment and state-by-state statistical tables that record for every Union regiment and battery the number killed or mortally wounded deaths from disease and other causes total deaths and in many cases losses in specific battles. Fox then broadens his treatment with chapters that aggregate casualties by army and corps present chronological lists of battles with their official casualty figures and estimate Confederate regimental and army losses for comparison drawing on the Official Records and other contemporary documentation.</p> Albany Publishing Company hardcover
