| Publisher Description: Based on the original journal kept by an unidentified soldier, this book presents a succinctly German perspective on a military campaign through Missouri in early 1862 in the wake of the momentous Battle of Wilson's Creek in August, 1861. From between the lines emerges a passion for describing not only the events of the campaign, but also personal interpretations and insights endowed with philosophical and even poetic facets. The author of the Recollections displays skill and versatility in his writing, and most importantly, a compelling need for verbal expression of a momentous experience in his life. Transcribed in German, translated into English, with a critical introduction, illustrations, photographs and bibliography. |
