This book comprises two accounts of the Mirbach Regiment and its
involvement in the Revolutionary War. Firstly, there is the
regimental journal, kept by quartermaster August Schmidt, which
spans the period from the unit's departure from regimental
headquarters in Melsungen on March 1, 1776 to its return home May
30th 1784 at the close of the war. Secondly there is the journal
kept by Ensign (later Lieutenant) Karl Reuffer. Although it covers
a shorter time span (March 1, 1776 to December 28, 1777), it goes
into much greater detail, and occupies three quarters of the book.
Thus we are able to compare two accounts of the same events. As an
appendix to his journal, Rueffer included a list of all
Hesse-Cassel officer deaths up to the end of 1777, giving the
officer's unit, place, time and cause of death.
