    Very! Take a look at the letters, especially Carpenter's. Its a vivid account of the most extraordinary charge of the Civil War (or at least, in my opinion anyway).
    No useless coffin enclosed his breast,
    Nor in sheet nor in shroud we bound him,
    But he lay like a warrior taking his rest,
    With his shelter tent around him.
