It was published in 1886 by the Democrat Printing Company, State Printers, Madison, Wisconsin. Even though the title seems the same, it is quite different from the first book mentioned above. This book is organized by unit, including cavalry, light batteries, and volunteer regiments. Regimental officers are listed first, followed by companies. You may find information included about soldiers such as their date of enlistment, residence, date of muster out, discharge, or death.
