Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Iowa Journal of History and Politics, Vol. 18: 1920 [This paper covers the period between the Civil War and the Spanish-American War and is a continuation of the Historical Survey of the Militia in Iowa, 1838-1865, which appeared in The Iowa Journal of History and Politics for July, 1919. For discussion of the various meanings of the term militia see the editor´s note to the former article. - Editor.] In the history of the Iowa militia the Civil War marks a rather definite dividing line. Before that time there was meaningless and conflicting legislation, loose organization, and an almost complete lack of records. While legislation remained for some time unsatisfactory and organization faulty, nevertheless what there was of either can be determined; for, thanks to the untiring work and insistence of General Baker, there are printed reports of the Adjutant General´s office from the year 1861. True it is that the Adjutant General at times reported companies of militia which had passed out of existence; but inaccurate reports are better than no reports, for inaccuracies may be detected. The period from the Civil War to the Spanish-American War saw the beginning of the National Guard in Iowa and its development into an efficient and effective fighting force capable of taking its place in the first line of the battle troops of the country. This period may be divided into three sections: from the close of the Civil War to 1878; from 1878 to 1892; and from 1892 to the war with Spain.
