The opening of the journal sets the stage for the campaign, detailing the initial preparations and movements of Hardenbergh’s regiment as they draw out of their winter quarters and embark on the march for Wyoming. The entries chronicle daily military life, including logistics of movement, the challenges of inclement weather, interactions with local inhabitants, and the constant threat of Indian attacks.
