Behind every regiment's banner stood farms, small towns, and anxious parlours across Iowa. Every name here once mattered. With calm precision and quiet feeling, Lurton Dunham Ingersoll records how iowa civil war troops answered the call, tracing their march from prairie communities into the great struggle of the american civil war 1861-1865. For anyone drawn to civil war military history or midwestern civil war history, it is a deeply human chronicle of union army volunteer soldiers in the Western and Eastern theatres alike. Structured as a sweeping union regiment history collection, Iowa and the Rebellion follows midwestern union army regiments from their organisation through field service, honouring local identities while setting each unit within the wider story of iowa in the civil war. Ingersoll's meticulous narrative, rich in names, dates, and context, makes this an american civil war reference book of rare depth, a civil war researchers guide prized by historians, family historians, and archivists. It is especially valuable for civil war genealogy research, preserving the service of thousands of Iowans and standing among the essential union state troop histories of the nineteenth century. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, bringing back into circulation a foundational work of midwestern union army regiments and a touchstone for anyone seeking to understand how one state helped save the Union.
