Summary: "My Days and Nights on the Battle-Field" by Charles Carleton Coffin is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the author's experiences and observations during the American Civil War, aiming to reflect upon the events that led to the conflict, the battles fought, and the sentiments of those involved in the war. Coffin's narrative seeks to educate young readers about the struggles and sacrifices made to preserve the Union, highlighting the importance of freedom and the sacrifices of American soldiers. The opening of the book serves as an introduction aimed at young readers, wherein Coffin reflects on his childhood memories of listening to his grandfather's tales of battles from the American Revolution. He establishes a connection between past struggles for independence and the present turmoil of the Civil War, as he sets out to explain how the rebellion arose. Coffin discusses the socioeconomic and historical factors that contributed to the South's secession and paints a picture of how various elements, including social classes and the rise of slavery, created a divided nation.
