Our little volume, though not pretentious, has outgrown its original limits. The intention of the compiler was not to attempt to write a historic narrative of the four years' service in the field of the grand old Eleventh, but simply to place in the hands of the surviving members and their friends a brief sketch of its birth, organization, muster-in, and its arrival at the front, thus connecting with Capt. Henry G. Blake's Three Years in the Army of the Potomac, with a few notes of such changes as occurred in our commanding officers, a list of the battles in which the regiment participated, and as correct a list of the surviving members as could be obtained from the roll of our present Veteran Association roll-book, with a reference to the time and place of holding our annual reunions, together with the names of the officers who served on each of those occasions.
