This is a firsthand account of the 1862 attempt by a small group of Union soldiers to infiltrate and destroy Southern rail lines, and their subsequent time as prisoners of war. First published in 1863, a first-hand account of an episode of the American Civil War. "The expedition, in the daring of its conception, had the wildness of a romance; while in the gigantic and overwhelming results it sought and was likely to accomplish.
A very good first hand account from one of the Northern soldiers involved in the Great Locomotive Chase.
