The regiment was made up of men who had been slaves the year before, and Higginson knew the whole country was waiting for it to fail. A Massachusetts abolitionist commanding the first black troops mustered into the Union army, he writes the campfires, the river raids into Georgia and Florida, and soldiers whose competence he had expected and America had not.
