Abstract

Introduction to an edition of letters of David W. Voyles, who served as regimental surgeon of the 66th Indiana Volunteer Infantry regiment. Voyles wrote the letters to his wife, Susan, from 1862 to 1864. The introduction examines the several social selves exhibited in the letters, including the spouse, father, soldier, moralist, and patriot. The introduction also notes records in the Indiana State Archives and the National Archives written by Voyles concerning his efforts to be appointed regimental surgeon and events in Washington County, Indiana.
