The Lost Regiment
William R. Forstchen · 9 novels · 1990–2000
William R. Forstchen's Lost Regiment series begins with Rally Cry, in which a Civil War Union regiment is swept onto a distant world where humans transplanted from many eras and cultures are farmed as food by an alien race. Arriving with nineteenth-century gunpowder weapons and organized tactics, the regiment's survivors fight to build a defensible nation and turn the war back on their captors, a conflict that escalates across nine novels of technology, politics, and generations.
