I have no great actions to boast of, but I will endeavor in my way, which is a way of my own, to write you some anecdotes, give you some ideas of how we fared, what we did, what we seen, and how we seen it. I do not propose to give you a history of the war, or a history of the prisoners in the South. I was a prisoner. -Erastus Holmes-

Contains list of Indiana soldiers buried at National cemetery, Andersonville, Ga., arranged regimentally. Includes speeches given at the dedication ceremony and reports by several women of their activities in support of soldiers during the Civil War, including one by Clara Barton.

At the outset of the Civil War, the cavalry of the Army of the Ohio (Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Tennessee) was a fledgling force beginning an arduous journey that would make it the best cavalry in the world. In late 1862, most of this cavalry was transferred to the Army of the Cumberland and a second cavalry force emerged in the second Army of the Ohio. Throughout the war, these regiments fought in some of the most important military operations of the war, including Camp Wildcat; Mill Springs; the siege of Corinth; raids into East Tennessee; the capture of Morgan during his Great Raid; and the campaigns of Middle Tennessee, Perryville, Knoxville, Atlanta, and Nashville. This is their complete history.

Looks at Andersonville Prison's commandant during the U.S. Civil War, Confederate Major Henry Wirz, who was arrested and later found guilty on war crimes charges for allowing inhumane conditions and treatment of prisoners of war at the prison.

This work traces the history of a remarkable troop of Hoosier horsemen--the East Wing of the Third Indiana Cavalry--during the Civil War. From the backwaters of the war in eastern Maryland to the epicenter of cavalry action in the eastern theater, they fought at Antietam, Brandy Station, Gettysburg and around Petersburg, and helped subdue Confederate forces in the Shenandoah Valley. Along the way they served as spies and fought in dozens of vicious skirmishes and battles. At Appomattox, they escorted one of the most famous generals to come out of the war.
