Lincoln once said that whenever he heard that Ohio generals and troops were involved in a battle, he felt confident of victory. Perhaps that's why he surrounded himself with Ohioans in the civilian and military leadership. Many of the men pictured on the cover of this book, Grant, Sherman, Stanton, Chase, and Sheridan, Buckeyes all, were the key actors in the victory of the Union. There were also a few Ohio civilians who made a difference. These include not only the wartime governors, all unionist Democrats, but also one Catholic nun who became a nursing legend. And, of course, one cannot forget the Ohio Copperheads, especially Clement Vallandigham, who were a thorn in Lincoln's side, and the Ohio men who fought for the Confederacy.This book looks at 50 of these men and women, Buckeyes all, who made a difference in the "American Iliad." It is the seventh in my series, and I hope you will enjoy it.
