As result among Harvard alumni, Union military losses were 10% compared with a 21% casualty rate for the Confederate Army. The battle of Gettysburg (PA) had the highest amount of Harvard alumni serving in the Union Army who were killed in action (i.e. 11), in addition 3 Harvard alumni Confederates also died in this battle. Secondly, seven Crimson warriors made the supreme sacrifice for the Union at Antietam (MD) with 5 more were killed in the battles of Cedar Mountain (VA) and Fredericksburg (VA). As expected, most of the Harvard alumni who died in the service of the Union were born and raised in the Northeastern states (e.g. 74% from Massachusetts). However, 9 Harvard alumni Union casualties were from the Mid West including one from the border state of Missouri. None of these Harvard men were from southern states.

After a fateful engagement in Gettysburg, Pennsyl- vania, Fauquier County’s role in the war changed. No longer the cradle of Confederate invasion, the battle lands of Manassas Gap, Auburn, Buckland Mills, and Rappahannock Station II were Lee’s path of retreat. Yet, much as Gettysburg did not end the war, Lee’s retreat was not the last that Fauquier County saw of Civil War soldiers. Throughout the Civil War, the “hallowed grounds” of Fauquier County were con- tested fields of battle. ■ June-July 1863 Goose Creek Bridge in 2008. Photograph by Garry Adelman.

Philadelphia: Thomas & Samuel Bradford, 1798. [4], 49, [3 blanks] pp. Modern boards, Very Good plus. The Academy of Medicine disagrees with the College of Physicians on the source of the Yellow Fever. The Academy "controvert[s] the opinion of the College of Physicians, respecting the origin of our late Epidemic." Governor Mifflin's letter to Benjamin Rush, requesting the Academy's opinion, is also printed. Rush opines that the yellow fever is "the bilious remitting fever of warm climates excited to a higher degree of malignity by circumstances to be mentioned hereafter," i.e., "putrid exhalations from the streets," and putrefactions from several ocean-going vessels which had docked in Philadelphia. Public health measures are suggested. The College of Physicians' report is included; it argues that the yellow fever differs from the "bilious fever". FIRST EDITION. Evans 34352.
