Step inside the world of a Confederate soldier. The Civil War diary of Captain George D. Wise is available for viewing as part of our online collections.

A well-educated Virginia native, Captain Wise takes the reader on a remarkable journey through the western front of this terrible war. His first-hand account of the battlefield, camp life, military strategy and the torturous path to Confederate defeat is a compelling read. Filled throughout with a passion for a cause that almost destroyed the nation, Captain Wise’s voice is not to be missed. Click here to see the diary.
