In 1861, Colonel Grenville Dodge organized the Fourth Iowa
Volunteer Infantry Regiment and led them off to war. They had few
uniforms or weapons and were more of a mob than a military unit,
but Dodge shaped them into a fighting force that won honors on the
battlefield and gained respect as one of the best regiments in the
Union Army. Promoted to the rank of Major-General, Dodge became one
of the youngest divisional, corps and departmental commanders in
the Army. A superb field general, he also organized a network of
more than 100 spies to gather military intelligence and built
railroads to supply the troops in the Western Theater. This book
covers Dodge's Civil War career and the history of the Fourth Iowa,
who fought at Pea Ridge, Vicksburg, Chattanooga and Atlanta.
