The journals of John Beatty offer a vivid glimpse into the life of a Union soldier during the Civil War, detailing his journey from private to Brigadier General. His writings encompass not only military engagements but also the daily lives of fellow soldiers, camp routines, and interactions with civilians and prisoners. This comprehensive account, originally published in 1879, spans from June 1861 to January 1864, including a gripping narrative of his friend's escape from Libby Prison, making it a valuable resource for understanding the era.
