In Guide to Louisiana Confederate Military Units, Arthur W. Bergeron, Jr., examines the 111 artillery, cavalry, and infantry divisions that Louisiana furnished to the Confederate armies. For each unit, he provides a brief account of its combat activities and lists the outfits' field officers, the companies in each regiment or battalion, and the names of company commanders. A comprehensive index helps locate the hundreds of officers and military subdivisions mentioned in the guide. And a bibliographic essay discusses the major government documents, archival material, and published sources Bergeron used in preparing this original and substantial contribution to Civil War literature.
