The Massachusetts 54th (African American Soldiers of the Union)

$8.00

One of the issues that led to the Civil War was the North’s and the South’s disagreement about slavery. Did one person have the right to own another? In January 1863, the U.S. government began to allow African Americans to join the Union army. Few fought more bravely than the 54th Massachusetts.
