To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Immediately after this, being still Colonel of the 20th Maine, I was assigned in special orders by General Warren to the command of a brigade of six Pennsylvania regiments, made up of veterans of the First Corps, who had distin- guished themselves at Gettysburg by their heroism and their losses, with a fine new regiment of ftdl ranks, — ^mostly veterans also. I devoted my best energies to the perfecting of this command during the campaign before Richmond and the opening assaults on Petersburg, ...but in the first battle here was severely wounded leading a charge, after rather presumptuously advising against it. Here General Grant promoted me on the field to Briga- dier-General in terms referring to previous history.
Returning to the front after months in Annapolis Naval School Hospital, I found my splendid bri- gade broken up and scattered, and its place filled by two new regiments, one from New York and one from Pennsylvania, both of finest material and personnel, but my command was reduced from the largest brigade in the corps to the very smallest.
