Medway & Millis' Civil War Service. Tom A. C. Ellis Jr., 2013. 428pp. illus. Hardcover. $35.00
“Tom A.C. Ellis, Jr. records the history of the Civil War through the service and
eyewitness experiences of the small town Union troops who fought it. In his
third book, “Medway & Millis’ Civil War Service- A History and Roster,” the
self-taught historian has provided the invaluable and definitive accounting of
the contributions and sacrifices of every Medway citizen who answered the call
of duty 150 years ago. But more than that, Ellis has documented an entire
community’s service from the town of Medway itself to its women and black
residents. The result is a comprehensive portrait of how a small Massachusetts town was affected by a national cataclysm. A prodigious researcher, Ellis follows Medway’s soldiers into battle, back home and, in many cases, into the grave.
