Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Reprint of the 1909 Democrat Printing Co Edition. Published by Butternut Press in 1984. Very Good in a very good dust jacket. No marks noted. Binding is tight and square. 220 pages ; Illustrations (B&W). . . . . . . . . The 1984 Butternut Press hardcover is a high?quality facsimile reprint of the scarce 1909 regimental history by Philip Cheek and Mair Pointon, preserving the original pagination and typography of the Democrat Printing Company edition. It presents a detailed narrative of Company A, 6th Wisconsin Veteran Volunteer Infantry?the ?Sauk County Riflemen??from their 1861 organization and departure from Baraboo through major engagements of the Iron Brigade to muster?out in 1865, blending chronological unit history with officers? rosters, casualty lists, and vivid first?person reminiscences. Intended for serious Civil War and regimental?history collectors, the Butternut reprint maintains the flavor of an early?20th?century veterans? publication while offering sturdier modern binding for regular reference use. The text is frequently cited in later scholarship on the Iron Brigade and Civil War soldier life, making this volume valuable both as a readable account of the Sauk County men?s service and as a convenient, affordable substitute for the fragile 1909 original in research libraries and private collections.
