Best Answer

Woodcock was an educated Union sympathizer from Kentucky who joined a pro-Union militia unit that in due course became the Ninth Kentucky Infantry in the Union army. He won a commission, was wounded in Georgia, and survived not only several major battles, including Perryville and Chickamauga, but camp diseases and army doctors as well. He wrote about his journeys and his writing reveals much about the early, erratic days of the volunteer regiments, about the politics of the border states, and about the comic aspects of the war, such as camp riots caused by bad whiskey or stray animals.
