Eighteenth Indiana Regiment Soldiers’ Harrowing War Record

A vivid recounting of the Eighteenth Indiana Infantry's service from formation in 1861 through hard campaigns in Missouri, Arkansas, Vicksburg, and Texas. The piece notes battles at Port Gibson and Champion Hill, the capture of enemy colors, and the regiment’s endurance of hunger and exposure, ending with mustering out and furloughs.
