| 520 | _a"History of the Twelfth West Virginia Volunteer Infantry" by William Hewitt is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the experiences and operations of the Twelfth West Virginia Infantry during the American Civil War, specifically detailing its formation and participation in various military campaigns from 1861 to 1865. The narrative likely serves to honor the regiment's contributions and preserve the memories of the soldiers who served. At the start of the book, Hewitt introduces the context of the Civil War, describing the initial underestimation of the conflict's scale and the hastiness of early military responses. He highlights the significant challenges in organizing troops and references the resolve of those who joined the Twelfth West Virginia, many of whom were motivated by patriotism despite personal ties to the opposing side. The preface sets a reflective tone as Hewitt acknowledges his intention to compile this history at the request of his comrades, noting the difficulties related to memory and record-keeping. As he lays the groundwork for the regiment's story, it becomes clear that the book aims to provide both a factual recounting and a tribute to the men who served.
