When This Cruel War Is Over: The Civil War Letters of Charles Harvey Brewster Blight David W.
I am scared most to death every battle we have, but I don't think you need be afraid of my sneaking away unhurt. Born and raised in Northampton, Massachusetts, Brewster was a twenty-seven-year-old store clerk when he enlisted in Company C of the 10th Massachusetts Volunteers in April 1861. Thus wrote Adjutant Charles Harvey Brewster of the 10th Massachusetts to his sister Martha in 1864, in one of over 200 letters he would pen during his four years of service.
His letters, most of which were written to his mother and two sisters, record not only the horrors he witnessed on the battlefield, During the next three and a half years he fought in many of the major battles of the Virginia campaigns--Fair Oaks, the Seven Days, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, the Wilderness, the Bloody Angle at Spotsylvania--rising through the ranks to become second lieutenant and later adjutant of his regiment.
