Reviews
"The authors have created a regimental history that goes beyond the same old story of soldiering with the Army of the Potomac. Rather this is a book that is both a study of the formative years of West Virginia, combined with the story of the fabled Seventh West Virginia Infantry."-- On Point: The Journal of Army History "Delving into the lives of the Seventh West Virginia Infantry's soldiers--all of whom endured the privations of war while being caught between advocates and opponents of statehood--effectively parallels the larger national clash of arms relative to secession and union. Through this means, the authors double-underscore that the Civil War was as much about limited regional concerns as it was about sweeping national controversies."-- Journal of Military History "A thoroughly researched, penetrating, and deftly written regimental history that should supersede the less rigorous popular works that have long dominated West Virginia's Civil War literature."-- Michigan War Studies Review "Mellott and Snell have produced a first-rate regimental history that demonstrates the enduring value of military history in understanding the sectional conflict."-- H-Net Reviews "The book describes the lives of both officers and soldiers in general.

Synopsis
Though calling itself "The Bloody Seventh" after only a few minor skirmishes, the Seventh West Virginia Infantry earned its nickname many times over during the course of the Civil War. Fighting in more battles and suffering more losses than any other West Virginia regiment, the unit was the most embattled Union regiment in the most divided state in the war. Its story, as it unfolds in this book, is a key chapter in the history of West Virginia, the only state created as a direct result of the Civil War. It is also the story of the citizen soldiers, most of them from Appalachia, caught up in the bloodiest conflict in American history. The Seventh West Virginia fought in the major campaigns in the eastern theater, from Winchester, Antietam, and Fredericksburg to Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and Petersburg. Weaving military, social, and political history, The Seventh West Virginia Infantry details strategy, tactics, battles, campaigns, leaders, and the travails of the rank and file. It also examines the circumstances surrounding events, mundane and momentous alike such as the soldiers' views on the Emancipation Proclamation, West Virginia Statehood, and Lincoln's re-election. The product of decades of research, the book uses statistical analysis to profile the Seventh's soldiers from a socio-economic, military, medical, and personal point of view; even as its authors consult dozens of primary sources, including soldiers' living descendants, to put a human face on these "sons of the mountains." The result is a multilayered view, unique in its scope and depth, of a singular Union regiment on and off the Civil War battlefield--its beginnings, its role in the war, and its place in history and memory., The state of West Virginia was created out of the strife and violence of the Civil War and the Seventh West Virginia Infantry represented the conflicting impulses towards loyalty to the new state and to the Union.
