A classic Civil War memoir, Co. Aytch is the work of a natural storyteller who balances the horror of war with an irrepressible sense of humor and a sharp eye for the lighter side of battle. It is a testament to one man’s enduring humanity, courage, and wisdom in the midst of death and destruction.Early in May 1861, twenty-one-year-old Sam R. Watkins of Columbia, Tennessee, joined the First Tennessee Regiment, Company H, to fight for the Confederacy. Of the 120 original recruits in his company, Watkins was one of only seven to survive every one of its battles, from Shiloh to Nashville. Twenty years later, with a “house full of young ‘rebels’ clustering around my knees and bumping about my elbows,” he wrote this remarkable account—a memoir of a humble soldier fighting in the American Civil War, replete with tales of the common foot soldiers, commanders, Yankee enemies, victories, defeats, and the South’s ultimate surrender on April 26, 1865. 41 kr

Among the many books aboutAmong the many books about the Civil War, Company Aytch stands out for its uniquely personal view of life as a Confederate Soldier. The author, Sam Watkins was an engaging writer with Twain-like talents who served as a foot soldier for four long years in the Confederate army. Originally published in 1881, Watkins'' account has long been recognized by historians as one of the most lively and witty narratives of the war.
Watkins'' novel-like autobiography of his years with the Army of Tennessee cover his service on the front lines of every major battle including Shiloh, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, Atlanta, Franklin and Nashville. Much more impressionistic than a historic telling of the facts, Company Aytch lays bare the attitude of a rebel private who endured starvation, forced marches, punishing battles and the monotony of camp life while serving the "Lost Cause."
Watkins did an excellent job of letting the reader into his head, revealing the thinking shared by ordinary soldiers who paid for the Civil War drama with their youth, blood and life. Parallels between Company Aytch and The Red Badge of Courage suggest that Stephen Crane was among Private Watkins''s readers.
