Description: This is the third edition of the history of a group of men who valiantly fought to preserve the Union during the American Civil War. This third edition expands on the previous ones with a new chapter and many more stories, burial locations, maps and photos. The men of the 26th Ohio Veteran Volunteer Infantry were among the first to answer their country's call to duty, and among the last ones to finally be mustered home. The "Old 26th" fought in numerous western theater campaigns and battles; including: Shiloh, Corinth, Stones River, Chickamauga, Missionary Ridge, Kennesaw, Peachtree Creek, Atlanta, Spring Hill, Franklin, and Nashville. Meticulously researched, their history is based on over five hundred primary source documents including letters, diaries, military and pension records, regimental and company records, and other first person accounts. Tis book chronicles the involvement of the 26th Ohio from the initial fervor following Fort Sumter and throughout the war, as well as the postbellum activities. The appendices include a roster, list of burial sites, photo gallery, and index. This history is a lasting tribute to the men who so bravely fought to protect what they held most dear-their beloved country. Inscribed to the previous owner by the author. A very nice copy -- clean and tight, no writing or tears. Just a bit of edgewear to the wraps. 2010, AuthorHouse.
