Excerpt from Racine County Militant: An Illustrated Narrative of War Times, and a Soldiers' Roster Though there is war history in it, the book is not a history of any war; it is an incident in the development of a larger work. When it was begun, in 1913, the writer had been engaged for several years in gathering material for a history of Racine, and had come to the period of the Civil War. In order to properly cover that subject, it was found that more space would be needed than could be spared in an ordinary chapter, or even an extraordinary chapter, of that work. It was seen, also, that the compilation of the roster involved more time and expense than could be afforded without assistance.
