Excerpt from Indiana at Vicksburg: Published Pursuant to an Act of the Sixty-Sixth General Assembly, Approved March 5, 1909; 1910 To our comrades, fallen and surviving, who served at Vieksburg in '63 this volume is affectionately dedicated. As servants of our State and representatives of the soldiery involved, we have endeavored to fittingly perpetuate in granite and bronze the memory of your services in the trenches and on the line of battle during that long struggle with a worthy foe. The monuments herein described have been located at advantageous points along the avenues of the beautiful national park, and fifty-three markers placed at the camp sites, on the sharpshooters' line, and at positions of farthest advance occupied by the various commands during the assaults of May 19 and 22, 1863. The positions were in most cases determined by members of the various commands who accompanied the Commission on the visit to the park for that purpose, and have been authenticated by record. Each monument bears upon its face a bronze tablet showing the designation of the regiment, its commanding officers, the events engaged in and the casualties suffered. Unfortunately, in some instances there is no report of the latter. It was desired that the history of each command in this volume should have been written by a member of the organization itself, and in many cases this was done. When a member willing to undertake this work could not be found the history was compiled from the reports of Adjutant General Terrell. To those who wrote the histories the Commission is grateful. The casualties during service have been compiled from Dyer's Compendium. Comrades, we should be grateful to our State; to the Legislatures of 1903, 1907 and 1909; and to Governor W. T. Durbin, Governor J. Frank Hanly, and Governor Thomas K. Marshall for their kindness and interest in this memorial, which is so dear to the heart of every man who stood before the besieged city of Vieksburg in 1863.

Includes over 30 maps and Illustrations The Staff Ride Handbook for the Vicksburg Campaign, December 1862-July 1863, provides a systematic approach to the analysis of this key Civil War campaign. Part I describes the organization of the Union and Confederate Armies, detailing their weapons, tactics, and logistical, engineer, communications, and medical support. It also includes a description of the U.S. Navy elements that featured so prominently in the campaign. Part II consists of a campaign overview that establishes the context for the individual actions to be studied in the field. Part III consists of a suggested itinerary of sites to visit in order to obtain a concrete view of the campaign in its several phases. For each site, or “stand,” there is a set of travel directions, a discussion of the action that occurred there, and vignettes by participants in the campaign that further explain the action and which also allow the student to sense the human “face of battle.” Part IV provides practical information on conducting a Staff Ride in the Vicksburg area, including sources of assistance and logistical considerations. Appendix A outlines the order of battle for the significant actions in the campaign. Appendix B provides biographical sketches of key participants. Appendix C provides an overview of Medal of Honor conferral in the campaign. An annotated bibliography suggests sources for preliminary study.
