Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War experience of the 10th Minnesota Volunteer Regiment resembles that of few other regiments. On the day the 10th Minnesota first mustered at Fort Snelling in August 1862, the Sioux Indian War broke out in western Minnesota. Soldiers who signed up to fight the Confederacy instead found themselves marching to defend the frontier and spending a year fighting two campaigns against the Sioux. When the 10th finally deployed south to fight the Confederate Army, it engaged in a series of skirmishes in the West, including battles at Tupelo and Nashville, and suffered many casualties. This chronicle merges the individual experiences of Union soldiers, Native Americans, and Confederates to offer a compelling, panoramic portrait of the 10th Minnesota during the Sioux Uprising and the Civil War, revealing the unwavering resolve of this remarkable regiment.

Included for the first time is a 144-page index to all the regimental rosters, making this an invaluable research tool.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Fourth Regiment of Minnesota Infantry Volunteers During the Great Rebellion: 1861-1865 The statements made in this history were nearly all compiled from official reports, or memoranda made by reliable persons of good judgment. I have no excuses to make for my style of writing or ability to present a more erudite and felicitious production; have copied quite freely from the "War of the Rebellion," official records, published by the United States Government, and in my reference to the same use figures "v. 17, 2,186," which, as here used, mean Volume 17, Part 2, page 186, and where such figures occur they refer to those volumes. I wish to acknowledge my thanks to the following named persons who placed their daily diaries, kept during their service, at my disposal: Comrade George E. Sly of Company A, whose record I found very accurate and reliable; also, Lieut Thomas M. Young of the same company; Hon. Washington Muzzy of Company II; Capt. I. N. Morrill and Lieut. George Baird of Company K; Adjts. Wm. T. Kittredgo and W. W. Rich; Lieut. John G. Janicke of Company G; Capt. F. V. De Coster of Company D; Lieut. John H. Thurston of Company C, who aided in corrections to the roster and matters connected therewith; Col. R. S. Donaldson, for his aid and encouragement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August 1862 the worst massacre in U.S. history unfolded on the Minnesota prairie, launching what has come to be known as the Dakota War, the most violent ethnic conflict ever to roil the nation. When it was over, between six and seven hundred white settlers had been murdered in their homes, and thirty to forty thousand had fled the frontier of Minnesota. But the devastation was not all on one side. More than five hundred Indians, many of them women and children, perished in the aftermath of the conflict; and thirty-eight Dakota warriors were executed on one gallows, the largest mass execution ever in North America. The horror of such wholesale violence has long obscured what really happened in Minnesota in 1862—from its complicated origins to the consequences that reverberate to this day. A sweeping work of narrative history, the result of forty years’ research, Massacre in Minnesota provides the most complete account of this dark moment in U.S. history. Focusing on key figures caught up in the conflict—Indian, American, and Franco- and Anglo-Dakota—Gary Clayton Anderson gives these long-ago events a striking immediacy, capturing the fears of the fleeing settlers, the animosity of newspaper editors and soldiers, the violent dedication of Dakota warriors, and the terrible struggles of seized women and children. Through rarely seen journal entries, newspaper accounts, and military records, integrated with biographical detail, Anderson documents the vast corruption within the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the crisis that arose as pioneers overran Indian lands, the failures of tribal leadership and institutions, and the systemic strains caused by the Civil War. Anderson also gives due attention to Indian cultural viewpoints, offering insight into the relationship between Native warfare, religion, and life after death—a nexus critical to understanding the conflict. Ultimately, what emerges most clearly from Anderson’s account is the outsize suffering of innocents on both sides of the Dakota War—and, identified unequivocally for the first time, the role of white duplicity in bringing about this unprecedented and needless calamity.
