The Iron Brigade, Part I: The Recruit

But when General John Gibbon of the Army of the Potomac's Iron Brigade comes to Detroit in dire need of munitions and men, Jacob finds himself a private in the newly formed 24th Michigan Infantry Regiment, on his way to Fredericksburg to take on the Confederate Army!
