Description
This is the first comprehensive history of the 22nd Iowa Volunteer Infantry to be published in over 100 years. This regiment was formed in Iowa City, Iowa, in August 1862 and served for three years. It was one of the few Civil War regiments which served in both the Western Theater, where it fought under General Grant in the Vicksburg Campaign, and in the Eastern Theater, where it fought under General Sheridan in the Shenandoah Valley. This remarkable regiment traveled about 13,000 miles (equal to half way around the world) by foot, wagon, rail, riverboat, and ocean-going steamship and served in 10 of the 11 Confederate States, from Texas to Virginia. 23% of the men who served in this regiment died in battle or from disease. Thomas P. McKenna is a former department commander of Sons of Union Veterans and a long-time member of a Civil War roundtable. He has an M.A. in history and is the author of the William E. Colby Award-winning KONTUM: THE BATTLE TO SAVE SOUTH VIETNAM, published by the University Press of Kentucky. He has also published many magazine articles on military history and biography. He is a retired U.S. Army officer who received the Combat Infantry Badge, Purple Heart, and several decorations for valor while serving in Vietnam. He is also the great-grandson of a soldier in the 22nd Iowa Volunteer Infantry.
