August Willich's Gallant Dutchmen: Civil War Letters from the 32nd Indiana Infantry Joseph R. Reinhart Wednesday, September 20 - Noon The Filson Historical Society Organized by Colonel August Willich, a former Prussian army officer who led troops during the German Revolution of 1848, Indiana's German 32nd regiment fought in the Western Theater of the Civil War. The 32nd Indiana forged an enviable combat record on the battlefields at Rowlett's Station in Kentucky; at Shiloh, Stones River, and Missionary Ridge in Tennessee; and at Chickamauga and Pickett's Mill in Georgia. These rare documents connect the contemporary reader to the world of the patriotic immigrant soldier and his hard-fighting regiment, revealing personal motivations, wartime experiences, opinions, ethnic pride and bravery. Joseph R. Reinhart is an independent scholar who has specialized in Civil War Research. His recent publications include Two Germans in the Civil War: The Diary of John Daeuble and the Letters of Gottfried Rentschler, Sixth Kentucky Volunteer Infantry, and A History of the 6th Kentucky Volunteer Infantry: The Boys Who Feared No Noise.
