Wade of Company G, Eleventh Regiment of Iowa Volunteer Infantry was not only literate but made use of his writing ability to keep a diary while in the army. His journal offers readers the perspective of a private soldier in the Civil War and is especially valuable for its contribution to the history of the Eleventh Iowa. His account begins with his enlistment in 1861; includes the major battles and campaigns of Shiloh, Vicksburg and Atlanta; and ends as he traveled home after his discharge in 1864. Will's enthusiasm for military service cooled as time went on. Though he fulfilled his three year obligation, he had no desire to extend his service by re-enlisting. It is evident in the journal that he was marking time, particularly as time passed. His journal reveals an average soldier who did his duty, but who increasingly looked to his life beyond the army. A wealth of vintage photographs, a bibliography, and an index to full-names, places and subjects enhance this excellent eye-witness account of the Civil War.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRonald Cannon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2012, 5.5\" x 8.5\", paper, index, 200 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780788454004\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e101-C5400\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heritage Books, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":672059326480,"sku":"101-C5400","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/101-c5400.png?v=1727738487"},{"product_id":"101-cd2693","title":"CD-The Centennial Northwest, An Illustrated History of the Northwest","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeing a Full and Complete Civil, Political and Military History of This Great Section of the United States From Its Earliest Settlement to the Present Time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis history covers the vast area known as the Great Northwest, including nine states-Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska-from 1776-1876.

She endured a terrifying ordeal of brutality and hardship on her six-week journey to the Sioux village where she was sold to another tribe, who in turn took her to Minnesota for ransom. Lorenzo Porter Lee had just arrived in St. Paul at the time fourteen-year-old Abbie Gardiner was delivered by the Indians to Governor Samuel Medary of the Territory of Minnesota.

Wick's History of the Amana Society, or Community of True Inspiration","description":"\u003cp\u003eAmana (the Society of True Inspiration) was a settlement of German pietists in Iowa, consisting of seven old-fashioned villages along the Iowa River. The founders were German mystics who believed in divine inspiration, and who traced their religious ancestry back to the pietists of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. They opposed Lutheran formalism, refused to take oaths and render military service, and would not allow their children to attend Lutheran schools.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn 1817, the group experienced a spiritual renaissance, and in 1842, several members came to the U.S. to explore the possibilities available here. This advance guard purchased 5,000 acres of the Old Seneca Indian reservation near Buffalo, New York, and six villages were built for the 800 emigrants who came over. According to the constitution of 1843, everything except clothing and household goods was to be held in common. By 1854, the community was in need of more land, and the time seemed appropriate for moving west. Eventually, it was decided to buy land in Iowa, and the community of Amana was established. By 1862, six villages lay within a radius of six miles in the Iowa River Valley, and the village of Homestead was bought outright to make the seventh, so that the community had access to a railroad for its produce. In 1859, the community was legally incorporated, and lived under a simple constitution until 1932.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDuring the Great Depression in 1932, Amana decided to abandon communism, and reorganized as a stock company with the usual rules applicable to corporations in a capitalist society. By the end of the 1950s, over thirty enterprises were in operation in the community, and many newcomers are now employed at the various industries in the area. Much remains to reflect the German religious heritage of the community. Amana has become one of the major tourist attractions in the Midwest due to its unique architecture, its interesting shops and excellent restaurants. Amana may be seen as a community which successfully adapted itself to the American scene, and which has grown, prospered, and developed as a German-American community.

The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the 1900s, some as late as the 2000s.

For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the 1900s, some as late as the 2000s. This book is constructed to last with a plastic spiral binding, acid-free paper, and a tough, laminated cover.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGregory A.

It encompasses the narratives of the countless men and women whose experiences have created the dynamic backdrop of national and world events.  The Albert Williams' collection provides the intimate portrait of a family populated by ordinary people challenged in many ways by extraordinary circumstances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"My Dear and Only Son\": Letters to a Heartland Pioneer\u003c\/em\u003e documents a non-fiction letter collection kept by Albert G. Williams of Cornish, New Hampshire, Grinnell, Iowa, and Campbell, California, consisting of 35 letters and two documents dating from 1853 to 1872, plus three historic appendices.  Born in 1840 in New Hampshire, Albert's life - divorced parents, binding out, pioneer settlement, nursery and orchard businesses, retirement in California, and subsequent judgeship - reflects atypical situations that will garner interest among academic historians of numerous specialties, while general readers will be drawn to the narrative history and memoir.  A comprehensive introduction delineates Albert's life in detail not recorded in the letters and explains the influence of Albert's uncle, New Bedford whaling captain Worthin Hall, in Albert's life.  Divorce was exceptionally rare in the 1850s, and the collection interrogates power injustices of the time which gave fathers control of their children after divorce, providing an historical perspective currently lacking in scholarship.  Most of the letters originate from Albert's divorced parents, Stephen Williams, Jr. and Melinda (Hall) Williams.  Their pain, as expressed in the letters, is palpable.  His divorced mother's voice is unique in the literature from the mid-1800s.  As intimate primary source material, scholars with interests ranging from women's and children's history to middle west settlement, feminist studies, and New England's manufacturing role in the Civil War should benefit, as well as readers drawn to the era and locations.  The book contains a preface and introduction to the collection, transcribed letters, two additional historic documents, added footnotes with explanatory information, bibliography and index.  An appendix recreates Williams' daughter's memories of the Grinnell, Iowa farm during the 1870s and 80s, adding context to the middle west settlement experience.  Two additional appendices showcase Albert's business and adult life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collection adds to the rich social history of ordinary Americans arguing less for individualism over familial ties as a driving force for re-settlement.  Albert Williams moved to Iowa at 16 years old; one of the area's earliest settlers.  His divorced parents in New Hampshire independently contributed most of the letters, and subsequently independently followed him west.  Taken as a whole, these letters transmitted cultural values, offered solace, and helped to maintain familial ties; foundational for the development of a teenager in a distant setting.
