Title
Weighing bread for Union Army, 1864
LC Subject
United States--History--Civil War, 1861-1865 Armed Forces Soldiers
Description
It was always a happy moment for the soldiers when "fresh-bread day" came round. It varied the monotony of "hardtack" and formed quite a luxury after the hard campaign through the wilderness and across the James River. Soft bread was obtained only in permanent camp. There was no time for it on the march.
