Americans with even a casual interest in the history of the Civil War are at least vaguely familiar with the legendary Stonewall Brigade. But how many people know anything about the Third Missouri Infantry Regiment? Jefferson Davis referred to the First Missouri Brigade, of which the Third Missouri was a part, as the "unsurpassed brigade" (p. 97). The Missouri 3rd Infantry Regiment was a part of the 1st Missouri Brigade. They were formed late Dec 1861 in Missouri under General Little from members of the Missouri Militia. Several firsthand accounts are available at the brigade level, but little has been written on the 3rd Regiment. They fought throughout the war with the Army of Tennessee.

The 11th Missouri Infantry distinguished itself as just the type of regiment the Union needed in the Civil War. Hard as nails and loyal to a fault, the men of the "Eagle Brigade" would follow their commanders "into hell if they ordered." They battled two Confederate regiments at Iuka, turned the tide at Battery Robinett at Corinth, assaulted the impossible Stockade Redan at Vicksburg as whole ranks of soldiers were cut down, and broke Hood's line at Nashville. Although the 11th Missouri ranks among the 300 top regiments of the Civil War, little of its history has been formally recorded. This study provides a detailed account of the regiment's four-and-a-half years of outstanding service and a roster.
