The
Civil War in Apacheland: Sergeant George Hand's Diary, California, Arizona,
West Texas, New Mexico, 1861-1864
by George Hand, Neil B. Carmony
Book Description: The publication of Whiskey, Six-Guns and Red-Light
Ladies in 1994 introduced readers to the ribald 1870s diary of frontier
saloon keeper, George Hand. More than a decade earlier, George Hand kept
another spirited journal, this one recording his service with the Union
Army. Marching from California through Arizona, West Texas and southern
New Mexico, Sergeant Hand and the other volunteers of the California Column
protected the southwest from further invasions by the Texas Rebels. Their
hardships and adventures are recorded in Hand's salty journal; heat, dust,
thirst and cold; ethnic tensions, frontier whiskey, and Apache depredations;
bad food and disease; and imperious officers whom enlisted man Hand does
not hesitate to cuss.
George Hand also hunted ducks and quail in a pristine Southwest, pulled
huge catfish from the Rio Grande, and rescued a damsel in distress. The
Civil War in Apacheland provides an intimate view of a little-known theater
of the Civil War, and is the first-hand chronicle of an army that contributed
mightily to the American settlement of the Southwest.
