Publisher's Synopsis
This collection comprises volumes 27 and 28 of the "Journal of the National Encampment, Grand Army of the Republic," offering a detailed record of the proceedings of this influential veterans' organization. The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) was a fraternal organization composed of veterans of the Union Army, Navy, and Marine Corps who served in the American Civil War. These journals provide invaluable insight into the GAR's activities, resolutions, and the experiences of its members in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Researchers and historians will find a wealth of information regarding the GAR's role in shaping post-Civil War America, advocating for veterans' rights, and preserving the memory of the war. These volumes contain lists of members, reports from various committees, speeches, and discussions on important issues facing the nation. The journals serve as a primary source for understanding the social, political, and cultural landscape of the era, as well as the lasting impact of the Civil War on American society. They are a testament to the enduring legacy of the Union soldiers and their commitment to preserving the ideals for which they fought.
