The following picture shows the two Civil War books I purchased at the Mercer County, Pennsylvania estate auction of Wallace Brooks Coulson back when I was a youngster. One is an original copy of the 1864 book "Soldier's National Cemetery, Gettysburg" and the other is an original copy of Amos Judson's 1865 book "History of the Eighty-Third Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers." Reading these two books when I was a youngster helped to turn me into a history enthusiast. Click Here to view a pdf copy of the contents of the regimental history book (10,696 KB).
