Buenger December 2005 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT The Battle of Sailor’s Creek: A Study in Leadership. (December 2005) Cloyd Allen Smith Jr., B.A., Slippery Rock University Chair: Dr. Joseph Dawson The Battle of Sailor’s Creek, 6 April 1865, has been overshadowed by Lee’s surrender at Appomattox Court House several days later, yet it is an example of the Union military war machine reaching its apex of war making ability during the Civil War. Through Ulysses S. Grant’s leadership and that of his subordinates, the Union armies, specifically that of the Army of the Potomac, had been transformed into a highly motivated, organized and responsive tool of war, led by confident leaders who understood their commander’s intent and were able to execute on that intent with audacious initiative in the absence of further orders. After Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia escaped from Petersburg and Richmond on 2 April 1865, Grant’s forces chased after Lee’s forces with the intent of destroying the mighty and once feared iv protector of the Confederate States in the hopes of bringing a swift end to the long war.

Setiawan: An Unguaranteed Victory An Unguaranteed Victory: Military Challenges in the Union Army and Lincoln’s Call for a Militia Madelaine Setiawan Lee University (Cleveland, Tennessee) At the outbreak of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) called for 75,000 volunteers to suppress the Confederacy. The secession of eleven southern states and the bombardment of Fort Sumter officially began the Civil War. Because of the United States’ reliance on an expandable army during wartime, Lincoln was mandated to release a proclamation calling for volunteers. Most men who called southern states home had withdrawn from the Union to fight against it, and while each Confederate soldier had different motives for their enlistment, their withdrawal meant that the Union lacked men to fight for their army.

  • Siege of Petersburg
    Seige Of Petersburg June 9th 1864 - March 25th 1865 Siege Of Petersburg Butler”s assault (June 9) While Lee and Grant faced each other after Cold Harbor, Benjamin Butler became aware that Confederate troops had been moving north to reinforce Lee, leaving the defenses of Petersburg in a vulnerable state. Sensitive to his failure in the Bermuda Hundred Campaign, Butler sought to achieve a success to vindicate his generalship. He wrote, "the capture of Petersburg lay near my heart." Petersburg was protected by multiple lines of fortifications, the outermost of which was known as the Dimmock Line, a line of earthworks 10 miles (16 km) long, east of the city. The 2,500 Confederates stretched thin along this defensive line were commanded by a former Virginia governor, Brig. Gen. Henry A. Wise. Butler”s plan was formulated on the afternoon of June 8, 1864, calling for three columns to cross the Appomattox and advance with 4,500 men. The first and second consisted of infantry from Maj. Gen. Quincy A. Gillmore”s X Corps and U.S. Colored Troops from Brig. Gen. Edward W. Hinks”s 3rd Division of XVIII Corps, which would attack the Dimmock Line east of the city. The third was 1,300 cavalrymen under Brig. Gen. August Kautz, who would sweep around Petersburg and strike it from the southeast. The troops moved out on the night of June 8, but made poor progress. Eventually the infantry crossed by 3:40 a.m. on June 9 and by 7 a.m., both Gillmore and Hinks had encountered the enemy, but stopped at their fronts.

    “A Mainer From Rockland: Adelbert Ames in the Civil War.” By Michael Megelsh Master’s Thesis: Liberty University Thesis Director: Dr. Brian Melton Second Reader: Dr. Steven Woodworth Table of Contents Introduction……………………………………………………………………………………1 Chapter 1………………………………………………………………………………………10 Chapter 2………………………………………………………………………………………31 Chapter 3………………………………………………………………………………………61 Conclusion……………………………………………………………………………………...87 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………………95 Introduction Surrounded by rough seas and located along the Cape Fear River, Fort Fisher was considered by the destitute Confederacy to be of vital importance to their survival. By early 1865, the salient fortification remained the last gateway between the Confederate States of America and the Atlantic Ocean. Located 18 miles south of the prized city of Wilmington, North Carolina, the formidable fortress had evaded capture while Federal forces held Charleston, Mobile, and every meaningful fortification along the Mississippi River. 1 Its capture would most certainly deliver a severe moral and logistical blow to the weakening Southern armies. Robert E. Lee declared that the fort must remain in Confederate hands at all costs or else he and the Army of Northern Virginia could not endure. 2 The United States War Department and its senior commanders were well aware of the strategic importance of Fort Fisher and the morale which it provided to the weakened Confederacy. In December 1864, 7,000 troops from the Army of the James, under the eccentric Major General Benjamin F. Butler set sail from the Virginia coast eventually joining forces with Rear Admiral David D. Porter and a massive flotilla of 60 warships. 3 Prior to the arrival of the infantry, Porter’s naval command sailed within striking distance of the southern stronghold but failed to force the fort’s defenders to surrender.

It was Major Laughlin's privilege to be present on that his- toric occasion as aide-de-camp to General Charles Griffin, Com- mander of the Fifth Army Corps, who was one of the three officers assigned by General Grant to arrange the details of the surrender of Lee's Army. Major Laughlin left Washington and Jefferson College in his Junior year to join the Union Army, and from August 1862 until the last shot was fired, played an heroic and useful part as an officer in the War between the States. He enlisted as a private and won succeeding promotions through efficiency and courage on the field of battle; he was brevetted Major for distinguished service in the Battle of Quaker Road, Virginia. In the article which follows Major Laughlin evidences delightful descriptive ability and it is interesting to note that his account of Lee's surrender coincides in every respect with the report of the same episode in General Grant's memoirs.

PREFACE To Abraham Lincoln, the Civil War was essentially a people's contest over the maintenance of a government dedi- cated to the elevation of man and the right of every citizen to an unfettered start in the race of life. President Lincoln believed that most Americans understood this, for he liked to boast that while large numbers of Army and Navy officers had resigned their commissions to take up arms against the government, not one common soldier or sailor was known to have deserted his post to fight for the Confederacy.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY AND RELIGIOUS STUDIES PROGRAM “JOSHUA CHAMBERLAIN IN HISTORY AND MEMORY” NATHANIEL ROBERT HESS SPRING 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in History and Political Science with honors in History Reviewed and approved* by the following: Carol Reardon George Winfree Professor of American History Thesis Supervisor Mike Milligan Director of Undergraduate Studies Head of Undergraduate History Intern Program Senior Lecturer in History Honors Adviser Mark E. Neely Jr. McCabe Greer Professor in the American Civil War Era Second Reader * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This thesis examines the path that the American Civil War general Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain took through the mists of history and memory to the present day. Chamberlain has become the quintessential Civil War hero, and this thesis tracks the progress of Chamberlain’s rise to fame. While Chamberlain is enormously popular today, his image has not always been so. His fame began largely in his home state of Maine. His heroic actions on July 2, 1863 on Little Round Top at Gettysburg, however, cast him into the national spotlight. After the war, he defended that legacy actively, sometimes against the criticisms lodged by his own veterans. Later in the 20th Century, Chamberlain’s rise came to fruition through the mediums of historical fiction and film. In his push towards fame, Chamberlain’s legend thrust aside all other contenders to advance a version of the “truth” surrounding his actions during the fight at Little Round Top, and beyond.
