"Narrative Of The March Of Co. A, Engineers" recounts the journey of Company A of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers from Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, to Fort Bridger, Utah, and back between May 6 and October 3, 1858. This detailed account, authored by William P. Seville, John W. N. Schulz, and the U.S. Army Engineer School, offers a firsthand perspective on the logistical and operational challenges faced by the military during this period of westward expansion.
The narrative provides valuable insights into the daily lives of soldiers, the geographical landscape they traversed, and the interactions with the environment. It serves as a contribution to the broader history of the United States Corps of Engineers and offers a window into mid-19th century military expeditions. This historical record is a valuable resource for anyone interested in military history, western expansion, and the role of engineering in shaping the American West.
