Let Him Know That You Are a Man (Annotated) Paperback - 2016

by Isaac J. Hill


From the publisher

On the 22nd of May, 1864, Union General, Rufus Saxton (a white man), dismounted his horse, turned to the African-American soldiers of the 29th Connecticut, and said, "Boys, if you ever want to make good soldiers you must look a white man straight in the face, and let him know that you are a man."The men of the 29th did just that. They fought in the siege of Petersburg, the Battle of Deep Bottom, and elsewhere, facing their foes with determination and courage. Many of them fell.Isaac J. Hill was one of them and wrote this fascinating and important memoir based on his field diary. He was among the first into Richmond and provides one of the most moving accounts of Lincoln's visit to the fallen rebel capital. Hill's perspective on the war, the rebels, Lincoln's assassination, and more from the view of a black American during the Civil War is unique.Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.
