One regiment. Two generations. One city at war. Names, dates, and hard service. George A. Hussey's History of the Ninth Regiment N.Y.S.M. -- N.G.S.N.Y. (Eighty-third N. Y. Volunteers.) 1845-1888 draws a clear line from pre-war parade ground to the brutal proving ground of the New York Civil War, following the New York State Militia into its Union service as the 83rd New York Volunteers and onward into National Guard lineage. It is a civil war regimental history written with the patience of a record-keeper: campaigns and home-front continuity are anchored by a complete regiment roster, making it as absorbing to read as it is to consult. Hussey balances narrative with data, letting you follow shifts in organisation and leadership while keeping sight of the human scale: neighbours, clerks, and craftsmen who became soldiers, then returned to life. For anyone tracing family stories, this militia unit history offers genealogy and service records that help turn a name into a life lived in uniform. For historians and re-enactors, it stands as a civil war research reference and a dependable military roster reference within the wider field of Union Army unit histories and 1845-1888 military history. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure -- it belongs on the shelf of the casual reader drawn to New York's wartime story and the classic-history collector who values primary-era regimental documentation.
