Présentation de l'éditeur

On July 10th, 1862, we issued a circular, which was mailed to the officers of every Indiana regiment, soliciting such information as would enable us to prepare a complete record of the part taken by our State in the suppression of the Rebellion. In addition to a full narration, we proposed to give the names of all Indianians who had fallen in their countrys service, if not of all who had enrolled themselves in her armies. We expected to commence the issue of our work as early as September, 1862. Circumstances, however, delayed publication until the present time, and also compelled a modification of our plan, especially in regard to the catalogue of names. The men of Indiana must blame their own patriotism, so promptly, largely, and gloriously displayed that it would require the compass of an encyclopaedia to contain individual names. In the prosecution of our work, we have had -serious difficulties to encounter. Sometimes it has been next to impossible to decide between contradictory, or to reconcile incongruous statements. Sometimes we have been unable to obtain particulars of some interesting event. And sometimes, again, while we have had full and clear accounts of the part one regiment has taken in an action, we have had very slight information in regard to the equally important part borne in the same action by another. These difficulties continue, and perhaps will continue throughout our work.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
