Appears in a few general bibliographies such as "A Bibliography of Illinois Civil War Regimental Sources in the Illinois State Historical Library: Part I, Published and Printed Sources" ( Illinois Historical Journal, 1994) and this, and it's cited a few times, but none of those things contribute any actual coverage to this book. Found no reviews on JSTOR, Project MUSE, EBSCO, or ProQuest. Appearances in bibliographies without even a comment on the book and the fact that it's cited don't meet WP:NBOOK or WP:GNG; it exists but it isn't notable. Hog Farm Talk 02:44, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

- Merge (as a new section at the end) to 114th Illinois Infantry Regiment. This is apparently a regimental history of that Civil War regiment, so that the article on it is an appropriate merge target for a book that is clearly not independently notable.

- Merge Per Peterkingiron. Not notable on its own, but could be worth noting with the regiment.

- I did a little bit of digging, and it appears this book is more of a collection of stories from the newspaper mentioned in the title and genealogical stuff and not exactly a formal history of the regiment. The author may have been related to a member, explaining his interest but not contributing to notability. Intothat darkness 17:19, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
