The Sword and Gun: A History of the 37th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry is a comprehensive account of the regiment's service during the American Civil War. Written by Robert C. Eden, the book covers the unit's formation in 1862, its training and deployment, and its various engagements in the Western Theater of the war. The 37th Wisconsin saw action in several major battles, including Vicksburg and Atlanta, and also participated in Sherman's March to the Sea. Eden draws on a range of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and official reports, to provide a vivid and detailed narrative of the regiment's experiences. He also explores the broader context of the war, discussing the political and social factors that led to its outbreak and the impact of the conflict on American society. The Sword and Gun is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Civil War or the experiences of soldiers on the front lines.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
