Summary; The Iron Brigade is one of the most celebrated military organizations of the American Civil War. Composed originally of the 2nd, 6th, and 7th Wisconsin, 19th Indiana, and Battery B of the 4th U.S. Artillery, the brigade first attracted attention as the only all-Western organization serving in the Eastern Theater. Although primarily known and studied because of its remarkable stand on the first bloody day at Gettysburg, its stellar service during the earliest days of the war and from the Wilderness to Appomattox has been routinely slighted. Herdegen has finally rectified this historical anomaly. Physical Description; xiv, 656 pages : illustrations, maps. Notes; Includes index. Subjects; 1861-1865. History. Regimental histories. United States. United States History Civil War, 1861-1865 Regimental histories. United States Army Iron Brigade (1861-1865).
