William James Smith's Memoirs of the Second Ohio Volunteer Cavalry

By William James Smith

As the story of the American Civil War is now being retold through the letters, diaries, and memoirs of those who served in the lower ranks, this engaging memoir, written by William James Smith to his children, is finally made available to the public. The experience that Smith relates is not only that of an Ohio private in a volunteer cavalry regiment of the Union army, but also one of a larger slice of the Civil War itself. Robert W. Hatton is Professor Emeritus of Modern Languages at Capital University in Columbus, Ohio, and the great-grandson of William James Smith.
