After the Union regained control of the Mississippi River in the
summer of 1863, President Lincoln ordered the commander of the
Department of the Gulf, Major General Nathaniel P. Banks, to "Plant
the Flag in Texas." To assist in this endeavor, the XIII Corps was
transferred to Banks' department. This brought Private William A.
McMillan of the 67th Indiana to Louisiana. McMillan's diary, which
covers the period from late December 1863 through the end of 1864,
describes his participation in the occupation of the coast of
Texas, the Red River Campaign, the capture of the forts guarding
the entrance to Mobile Bay, and actions in Louisiana and Arkansas.
