Description

A testament to the valor and determination of a common soldier On September 17, 1861, twenty-two-year-old Jacob Haas enlisted within the Sheboygan Tigers, an organization of German immigrants that become Company A of the Ninth Wisconsin Infantry Regiment. Over the following three years, Haas and his comrades marched thousands of miles and saw service in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, and the Indian Territory, including pitched battles at Newtonia, Missouri, and Jenkins’ Ferry, Arkansas. Haas describes the war from the standpoint of a private soldier and an immigrant as he marches through scorching summers and brutally cold winters to fight in one of the crucial most savage combat within the west. His diary shows us an peculiar story of the valor and determination of a volunteer soldier. Even though his health used to be ruined by war, Haas voiced no regrets for the fee he paid to fight for his adopted country.
