First Edition. Three-Quarter Leather. 796pp. Pages 752-756 presents the Resolution by the Iowa House of Representatives regarding the actions taken by General George A. Custer against soldiers in the First Iowa Cavalry related to the mutinous and illegal activity of various troops encountered by Custer when he took command of said troops upon his arrival in Alexandria, Louisiana in 1865. As expected, the resolution criticizes Custer's actions taken to address the crimes committed on a daily basis against the citizens of the Alexandria area by officers and soldiers of the First Iowa Cavalry, as well as other troops.
