Ohio marched hard, and kept records harder. Volume II of Whitelaw Reid's landmark Ohio in the War brings you deep into the Union's most dependable state contribution, tracing units, commanders, and campaigns with the crisp authority of a nineteenth century military history written close to the events. It rewards careful study, yet reads with surprising pace and clarity. Names. Dates. Lives on edge. Part civil war regimental history, part union army reference book, this volume follows Ohio volunteer infantry regiments and other organisations as they were raised, led, and tested. Expect clear narrative alongside civil war regiment rosters, union regiment muster rolls, and the kind of detail that turns browsing into civil war genealogy research: where companies formed, how they moved, and which officers shaped them. For readers of the American Civil War Ohio story, it is a steady guide to the Ohio Union Army 1861-1865, and a reliable path into civil war soldier records without losing the human scale. Reid, a journalist and later statesman, wrote with the urgency of remembrance and the discipline of documentation, preserving the service of union generals and soldiers before it could blur into legend. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For the casual history reader it offers swift access to what happened and who served; for the serious researcher and military history collectors edition shelf, it remains an essential cornerstone.
