Corporal George Wise, 17th Virginia (1861)
3 September 2022
Sharpsburg veteran George Wise of Alexandria, VA published his History of the Seventeenth Virginia Infantry, C.S.A. in 1870, probably based on his wartime diary, and the more ambitious Campaigns and Battles of the Army of Northern Virginia in 1916.
His photograph is from his second book, and both volumes are online from the Internet Archive.
