| Abstract | The author was born in Germany, immigrated to Indiana when he was fifteen, and enlisted in 1861. He fought with both the Seventh Indiana infantry, and the Fifteenth Indiana Independent Battery, earning a Congressional Medal of Honor. This history of the last months of the war seems intended for local German immigrant veterans and to provide Fout's personal experiences in and observations of those battles. |
