Freedom by the Sword
The U.S. Colored Troops, 1862-1867
From late 1862 to the spring of 1865, as the Civil War raged on, the federal government accepted more than 180,000 newly emancipated black men as soldiers, something it had never done before on such a scale. This book tells the story of these soldiers' recruitment, organization, and service.
