Almost 'before the ink was dry,' this book was being hailed as one of the Top 100 Civil War books of all time. Drawn from the collection of Abbott letters at the Houghton Library, Harvard, Fallen Leaves is the single best introduction to the ethos of the 20th MA, as it was laid down and lived out by one of the finest young officers in the Union army.
