In 1861 Bennett enlisted as a Corporal in Co. E of the 36th Illinois Volunteer Infantry Regiment a three-year unit known as the Fox River Regiment. Military authorities took advantage of his skills assigning him to engineering duties at Rolla and St. Louis Missouri throughout late 1861 and early 1862. His detached duty which included map-making and work on fortifications ended in time for Bennett to join his regiment for the Battle of Pea Ridge Arkansas on March 7 1862. He was permanently detached from the 36th Illinois after the battle to serve on the engineering staff of Brigadier General Samuel Ryan Curtis. He sketched the Pea Ridge battlefield and was the cartographer of the Army of the Southwest as it marched across Missouri to Helena Arkansas. In 1863 Bennett took a commission as major of the 4th Arkansas Volunteer Cavalry Regiment United States which he helped raise and organize. He resigned and was honorably discharged in August 1864. As a civilian Bennett again joined the engineering department of General Samuel Curtis then commanding the Department of Kansas. He mapped the 1864 battlefields of Price's Raid and was sent to inspect the army's installations along the stage line to Denver Colorado. The book Powder River Odyssey: Nelson Cole's Western Campaign of 1865 The Journals of Lyman G. Bennett and Other Eyewitness Accounts by David E. Wagner 2009 was written almost entirely from the journal that Bennett kept in 1865. <br /> <br /> CONDITION REPORT<br /> <br /> The book is in Good condition - binding is firm with hinges only slightly weakening.

On Y.M.C.A. letterhead 'On Active Service With the British Expeditionary Force' 15 September 1917. 2pp. 4to. 53 lines. Fair on lightly-aged paper with minor traces of previous mounting at head and a light and unobtrusive water stain. The letter is headed by Rose 'Y.M.C.A. B.A.P.O.2 B.E.F. France'. Regarding Sheppard's recently-published 'Quest of Ledgar Dunstan' Rose writes: 'You have a wonderfully keen mental eye which sees everything with extraordinary sharpness & you have a literary hand which etches with just & delicate touch. The book is also one of singular intensity of feeling which carries the reader along fascinated & thrilled. The mad-house scenes are like Dostoievsky for pathetic vividness & power.' Rose continues with a detailed analysis of Sheppard's 'rvery remarkable book' and literary talents before reporting that he is 'out here for six months giving talks on the war & its issues to the troops every night'. He returns to Cambridge on 8 October 'for a very dull Term'. He regrets that he is 'out of touch with the literary papers' but will be pleased to be of service. The letter ends: 'Remember me to your brother whom I have not seen for long.' A postscript reads: 'By the way suitable Y.M.C.A. workers are badly needed out in France.'
