ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED BY 1901, THIS IS A HANDSOMELY DECORATED REPRINT FROM BROADFOOT PUBLISHING COMPANY, WILIMINGTON, PRINTED IN 1991.. One of the most indispensable works for the Army of Northern Virginia. This was a historical undertaking of a magnitude matched by no other single state. North Carolina sent more men into the Confederate army and lost more dead than any other southern state.

Thousands of infantrymen from the State were present in the final assault at Gettysburg. In late 1894, work was begun on a compilation of histories of each regiment and organization from North Carolina that served in the Confederate Army.

The completed work appeared for the first time in 1901. North Carolina Regiments is a comprehensive, five-volume work totaling more than 4,000 pages. The contributors include most of the North Carolina generals still living at the time, and many officers from the respective commands. In addition to the regimental histories, the book provides sketches of brigades, accounts of battles in which North Carolinians fought, list of officers, a roster of North Carolinians who surrendered at Appomattox, and articles on North Carolina prisoners in the North, the Home Guard, the Medical Corp, the Chaplain Service, the Junior Reserves, The Militia, Military Prisons, the Conscript Bureau, the Corps of Engineers, and numerous other topics. The set is loaded with first-hand accounts of captures and battles, including an account of Jackson's Flank March and Wounding at Chancellorsville, Longstreet's Assault at Gettysburg, the Pettigrew-Pickett Charge at Gettysburg, the surrender at Appomattox, a Battle After the War, North Carolina Confederate Navy history, and much, much more. Several hundred portraits, many of them available nowhere else, accompany the text and are an especially valuable part of the set.
