Antiquarian and dry.
I'd been aware of the reputation that the 1st Vermont Brigade had acquired in the Army of the Potomac so when I stumbled across this book I was pleased to give it a try.

Fortunately, the book didn't demand a great investment of time as it had a musty, antiquarian quality which suggested that Mr. Parsons had done his research but wasn't quite able to bring a detailed analysis to bear on his material. The flavor is more that of a scrapbook than a polished work.

This is sad as this is a potentially interesting and relevant story but Parsons doesn't bring his subject to life the way Alan Nolan did in "The Iron Brigade" or Terry Jones in "Lee's Tigers" (two good brigade level studies of the Civil War in Virginia).
