Big Daddy I have a civil war pocket bible from Cpl. Charles Mount NY 112th incredible, you can see the wax from the candles on the pages and on the blank pages he writes about how he may not live through the battle the next day and will be at peace when he dies. It just brings it all to life. This is something he had right then and there, with him in all the battles ... Amazing and moving to look at the pencil marks and the writing ... I did some research, he survived the war. I wish I could find his family. I would give the bible to them
