| Summary | "Journal of William H. Richardson, a private soldier in the campaign of New and Old Mexico" is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work chronicles the experiences of William H. Richardson, a private soldier, as he documents his journey and service during a military campaign in Mexico. The journal provides a vivid glimpse into the trials and tribulations faced by soldiers, as well as their interactions with various individuals and landscapes along the way. At the start of the journal, Richardson recounts his decision to join a company of mounted volunteers in Missouri. He reflects on his preparations and the camaraderie developed with fellow soldiers as they begin their journey towards Fort Leavenworth. The opening portion details their initial adventures, including managing their horses, logistical challenges, cooking, and the challenges of long marches. Richardson's observations reveal not only the hardships of military life but also the humor and spirit of the men as they navigate unfamiliar territories and the camaraderie that arises in shared adversity.
