Brief Historical Sketches of Military Organizations Formed in Alabama During the Civil War

by Willis Brewer

In 1962 the Alabama Civil War Centennial Commission reprinted pages 589-705 of Willis Brewer's Alabama which contain brief historical sketches of the military organizations raised in Alabama for Confederate service.

We have made numerous changes / additions to Brewer's original work based on our own research and more recent findings.
