This list was started from a small number of books on the Civil War in the western United States
collected by the compiler and then added to from an occasional search of library catalogs and
websites. It also includes references on the Grand Army of the Republic (G. A. R.) and its allied
orders. Each book has at least a passing reference to the Civil War and/or the G. A. R. This list
is only a small part of the likely thousands of such publications out there, and is intended to
cover the areas of the present states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada,
New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. This list
is a work in progress and will be added to, corrected, and updated as time permits. If anyone
sends me a reference, I will add it to the list. Updated as of November 9, 2009.
