This book fills the void in our knowledge by bringing together an impressive array of information on Michigan's armed forces from 1775 to 1860. Here we find the name rank, unit, and dates of service for all known Michigan men who served in the Revolutionary War, Indian Wars, War of 1812, Black Hawk War, Toledo War, Patriot War, and the Mexican-American War. Accompanying histories explain the reasons behind the conflicts and include maps showing all theaters of operations for Michigan troops. The in-depth accounts of the state's role in these hostilities often serve as the first serious and comprehensive studies of the contributions made by its citizens in these events. Ultimately, this book stands as a fitting memorial to the many men who took up arms on behalf of Michigan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roger Rosentreter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0814330819\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814330814\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Great Lakes Books Series\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.50h x 7.28w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Michigan Notable Books - Winner","brand":"Roger Rosentreter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43926426255615,"sku":"9780814330814","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f7b8d59a-7a6a-495f-a4f7-d4b48391f202.jpg?v=1681083023","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/michigans-early-military-forces-roger-rosentreter-9780814330814","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
