  • This letter is written by a soldier, John Miller, in the Civil War to his sister. He describes how he was wounded with a bullet in his side but still gets enough courage to keep fighting. This shows how these soldiers wouldn't give up in this rough time.

  • I chose this sketch by William Waud, because it shows how brutal the war was. There are Hospital attendants searching for wounded soldiers so they don't die. This reflects the life during the Civil War by how dangerous it was.
