Synopsis

From muster to memorial, a detailed portrait of a regiment and its men
This nonfiction account covers the One Hundred Sixty-First Indiana Volunteer Infantry, tracing its formation, service, and later mustering out after the Spanish-American War. It weaves together official records, personal notes, and the Roll of Honor to illuminate the experiences of soldiers, chaplains, musicians, and hospital staff.

The book highlights the regiment’s time in Cuba, its conduct in camp, and the human stories behind the headlines—from the first fatalities to the men who returned home with memories of a hard-won duty. It also documents the band and drum corps, the daily routines, and the care given to fallen comrades as the unit prepared to rejoin civilian life.

What you’ll read inside

  • Accounts of life in camp, drill, and the rhythms of regimental duties

  • Descriptions of memorial practices, grave markers, and commemorations

Ideal for readers who enjoy military history, Indiana local history, or first-hand-style regimental narratives that honor service and sacrifice.

Ideal for readers of military history, local histories of Indiana, and readers seeking a respectful, documentary view of a regiment’s journey.

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.
