Summary "The History of the Twenty-ninth Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry" by William H. Osborne is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work chronicles the formation, experiences, and contributions of the Twenty-ninth Regiment, detailing the early actions of the Massachusetts militia during the Civil War. It provides valuable insights into the regiment's organization, the towns and cities that contributed to its formation, and the personal accounts of those who served. The opening of the book serves as a preface where the author expresses gratitude to those who assisted him in compiling this history. Osborne delves into the early days of the Civil War, highlighting the volunteer spirit in Massachusetts as the regiment was formed amid patriotic fervor. He outlines the legislative actions taken by the state to raise troops and describes the various companies that would eventually unite to form the Twenty-ninth Regiment. These early chapters set the stage for understanding the historical context of the regiment's enlistment and the significance of their service in the Union's efforts during the war.
