Abstract: |
Franz Sigel (1824-1902) was an Army officer and editor. He served as a general in the Union Army during the American Civil War. The collection consists of correspondence, orders, dispatches, reports, notes, memoranda, maps, and other papers dealing almost exclusively with Sigel's activities as a brigadier general and major general from April 1861 to July 1864. Includes unpublished narratives of Sigel's campaigns, a few personal letters, and others involving Sigel's enlistment of volunteers in St. Louis early in 1861. |
