In a sense the most important piece in this category is the "St. Louis Grand March", the first piece of music published west of the Mississippi River. The illustrated title page (by an Eastern lithographer) is impressive. But so are most of the title pages in this section, which represent mainly the home guards of individual American cities, the majority from the northeast. There are several lovely views of Philadelphia. One of the Baltimore pieces is particularly striking. Other regiments or companies depicted are from Richmond, Savannah, Louisville and San Francisco.
