Summary "Notes of a Staff Officer of Our First New Jersey Brigade on the Seven Day's Battle on the Peninsula in 1862" by E. Burd Grubb is a historical account written in the early 20th century, specifically around 1910. This book offers a firsthand narrative of the Seven Days Battles during the Civil War, focusing particularly on the experiences of the First New Jersey Brigade. Grubb, who served as a staff officer in the brigade, recounts the harrowing events, observations, and personal experiences he encountered during this critical campaign. The narrative unfolds through Grubb’s eyes as he describes the movements, strategies, and chaos of the Seven Days Battles, with particular emphasis on the Battle of Gaines' Mills. He shares vivid descriptions of the battlefield, detailing the environment, troop formations, and the psychological strain of combat. Grubb not only reflects on the tactical decisions made by commanding officers but also recounts personal stories, including the fate of fellow soldiers, the challenges of coordinating troops, and the impact of weather on warfare. Through his recollections, readers gain insight into the horrors of war, the camaraderie of soldiers, and the stark realities of battle during this pivotal moment in American history.
