"The City Guard: A History of Company 'B' First Regiment Infantry, N. G. C." is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the experiences of Company B during the Sacramento campaign of 1894, a pivotal event in California's labor history amidst a significant strike. The book details the company's formation, its role in responding to the labor unrest initiated by the Pullman strike, and the broader implications of these events on the California National Guard. The opening portion of the text introduces the reader to the context of the Sacramento campaign, beginning with a preface that outlines the motivations for documenting the history of Company B. It describes the strike's origins in the Pullman Car Manufacturing Company, detailing the subsequent labor unrest that paralyzed California and how it escalated to the point where the National Guard, including Company B, was mobilized to restore order. Initial chapters outline the strike's impact on local businesses and the challenges faced by the strikers and company members alike, setting the stage for the heightened tensions and potential confrontations that Company B anticipates as they prepare to deploy in July 1894.
