Synopsis

Acclaim for "Volume I: The Eastern Theater": 'The breadth and meticulous rendering of this volume's contents, heretofore available only in widely scattered sources, mark this book as a classic of Civil War historiography...A fundamental reference work - "Library Journal". '...an indispensable reference work' - "Choice". 'This is one of the most outstanding reference books that have ever been published on the subject of the Union Army during the Civil War period. It ...was 15 years in the making. A better work for the purpose is unlikely to appear in the near future' - "Infantry".Here is Volume II of Frank Welcher's magisterial reference work on the Union Army. It extends coverage to the Western theater of operations. As in Volume I, Welcher provides a complete and continuous account of the organizations of all Union military divisions, departments, army corps, brigades, and the numerous special commands that came into existence from time to time during the war. His unit histories include the names of commanders and subordinate units, geographical boundaries, important dates, descriptions of combat activity, and detailed information about the units during times of military activity. He has made it possible for historians and Civil War buffs to track the activities of specific units. It includes extensive name and unti indexes for both Volumes I and II.
