John Daeuble's richly detailed diary entries and Gottfried Rentschler's lengthy letters, written for a German-language newspaper, are important additions to the still-incomplete mosaic of the Civil War, not only because of their engaging content but also because they help fill significant voids created by an almost complete lack of published sources from Kentucky's Union soldiers and by the shortage of primary source materials about German immigrants who fought in the war. Originally written in German, the diary and letters cover the participation of the two immigrants in the historic battles around Chattanooga, the pursuit of Longstreet's corps in East Tennessee, and Sherman's grueling Atlanta campaign.
