Robert Underwood Johnson, Clarence Clough Buell, Battles and Leaders of the Civil War: Volume 2., Iuka and Corinth. (search)
ngth of both brigades was 3179 officers and men. Their loss was 86 killed and 408 wounded [see also p. 736]. In addition to these, about 200 of the Confederate sick were left at Iuka and on the road. Price's loss, therefore, was about 700. Rosecrans's column, according to his own report, was 9000 strong, but the brunt of the battle fell upon two brigades of Hamilton's division. The Union loss was 141 killed, 613 wounded, and 36 missing; total, 790. Rosecrans says that Price's loss was 1438; and Hamilton states boldly, to use his own expression, that he, with a force of not more than 2800 men, met and conquered a rebel force of 11,000 on a field chosen by Price. General Grant, in his report of the battle written a month afterward, discards these exaggerations of Rosecrans and Hamilton. The battle of Iuka. by C. S. Hamilton, Major-General, U. S. V. Iuka is a little village on the Memphis and Charleston railway, in northern Mississippi, about thirty miles east of Corinth.
