Abstract
Years ago, when I was working on my master’s degree in history at Louisiana Tech University, an acquaintance allowed me to use the Civil War diary of Joseph W. Ely as the basis for my thesis. Ely, a corporal in the 19th Michigan Infantry, was captured at Thompson’s Station, Tenn., and spent time in the infamous Libby Prison before being exchanged. He had his left ring finger shot off in the Atlanta Campaign and survived the March to the Sea and the Carolinas Campaign to return home and live well into the 20th century.
