Thomas F. (hardtack) -
While not one of the great memoirs of the Civil War, it is certainly an interesting one. Most of his 'story' has to do with the everyday details of a soldier's life. Only occasionally does he relate incidents of more importance to historians. For example, at the end of the war Jackman was in Washington, Georgia, when CSA President Davis passed through trying to escape capture by Federal troops. He describes Davis' dress and his separation from his cabinet.
