520    $a This book traces the participation in and reaction to the Civil War on the part of Pennsylvania's "Germans"--Both the Pennsylvania Dutch of the seventeenth, eighteenth, and early nineteenth century migration and the later emigrants from German-speaking Central Europe who arrived in the nineteenth century, the so-called German-Americans. In 1860, the German-born population of the United States was 1,301,136 citizens. Of these, 138,244 resided in Pennsylvania. It is not just their sheer numbers, which make the Keystone State's Germans a worthy subject of historical inquiry. Their experiences also demonstrate the power that ethnic identity had on both ethnic and nonethnic Americans during the Civil War. During the campaigns and the Battle of Gettysburg, ethnic consciousness permeated the daily lives of civilians and soldiers and played a major role in directing their behavior. Their role in the Battle of Gettysburg was significant. In certain instances, the regiments with Pennsylvania Dutch and German-Americans in their ranks, saved the Union's fortunes. Their experiences at Gettysburg were representative of both groups.
