| Summary | "The Last Campaign of the Twenty-Second Regiment, N.G., S.N.Y. June and July,…" by George W. Wingate is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This narrative recounts the experiences of the Twenty-Second Regiment of the New York National Guard during their campaign in Pennsylvania amidst the Civil War, highlighting their preparations, marches, and the chaos of battle. The book likely focuses on themes of military camaraderie, the hardships faced by soldiers, and the realities of war. In this riveting account, Wingate documents the regiment's hasty mobilization to defend Pennsylvania from the Confederate army in June 1863. The soldiers are depicted as they leave their civilian lives behind, filled with excitement and trepidation, and then endure a grueling journey of long marches, inadequate provisions, and harsh weather. Wingate vividly describes their encounters with the enemy, the challenges of camp life, and the exhausting, often chaotic situations that arise during military campaigns. Key moments highlight their eventual engagement near Gettysburg and the profound physical and emotional toll that the tumult of war takes on the troops, painting a portrait of resilience amid adversity.
