True story material which has been told over the radio -- now in book form to meet the demand. ""Old Abe"" was the live eagle mascot of the 8th Wisconsin Regiment in the Civil War, and lived to a ripe old age, lauded before crowds, used in parades, and borne in convoy with President Grant. This is the story of his adventures and misadventures. And the preface gives the factual data on how an eagle came to be the American symbol.
