A history of the 112th Regiment of Illinois Volunteer Infantry during the American Civil War.

Excerpt from History of the 112th Regiment of Illinois Volunteer Infantry, in the Great War of the Rebellion, 1862-1865 After the close of the war the government removed the re mains of all the deceased Union soldiers that could be found to National Cemeteries, where the graves were numbered and a record made of all that could be identified. Many could not be found, and many of those found could not be identified, but by the courtesy of the superintendents of these cemeteries, the author has ascertained the place of burial and number of grave of every member of the 112th Illinois of whom there is any record. Inquiry has been made as to every man; and if any are missing it is for the reason that no record can be found of their burial.

Excerpt from With the 112th in France: A Doughboys Story of the War It is not a compilation of official documents, written with a view to meeting all the requirements of a stereo typed report. The effort has been directed toward tell ing in a human way those human incidents which made up part of the life of hiking, fighting and eating (as time and rolling kitchens permitted) during a strenuous four months' service on the battle-line in France. Perhaps the story of the 112th Infantry, 28th Divi sion, is no more remarkable in many respects than the record of many other infantry regiments at the front. No claim is made that it had better fighters, that it excelled in one specialty or in staying qualities; yet it did possess all those characteristics which go toward making up a real American regiment, fighting fit and ready to fight; that indomitable persistence to plunge ahead which played such a great part in driving the Hun line back to its homeland.
