Friedrich Hecker was a major leader of a rebellion on behalf of the German republican movement in 1848, but his defeat forced him into exile in America. This work draws from original sources, including letters and diaries at the Western Historical Manuscript Collection, the Missouri Historical Society, and the St Louis Mercantile Library.
