Through the windows-through doors-burst like a ruthless force, Into the solemn church, and scatter the congregation, Into the school where the scholar is studying; Leave not the bridegroom quiet-no happiness must he have now with his bride, Nor the peaceful farmer any peace, ploughing his field or gathering his grain, So fierce you whirr and pound you drums-so shrill you bugles blow. -Walt Whitman 1 Introduction Like a monstrous storm full of destructive energy gathered offshore, the Civil War broke down upon Mount Desert Island suddenly and with great force, a giant wave that breached the shoreline and covered the landscape to its highest point, taking up young men in its torrent, and delivering them by different currents to their fates. The winds of war blew hardest in their third year, in the spring of 1864, when all who could be enlisted were fully exposed to the sustained violence of the Overland Campaign, an unrelenting surge of military power intended to finally bring the war to an end. When the war started in the spring of 1861, Augustus Chase Savage was twenty-nine, James M. Parker was twenty, and Thaddeus S. Somes was twenty-two. They were among scores of youths from the Town of Mount Desert who suddenly became valuable commodities for an army hungry for soldiers to fill its ranks. They were enticed with enlistment bonuses and the promise of steady pay, patriotic appeals and the lure of adventure, or at the very least, a change of scene.

As the armies of the Union and Confederacy marched and clashed, many individuals, from soldiers to officers to politicians, gained renown for their actions and the parts that they played in the war. These people, as well as the armies, battles, and campaigns, have been the focus of countless historical studies in the century and a half since the Civil War ended. However, there is one aspect of the struggle that has been largely underappreciated by both scholars and the general public.
