A clean example of Civil War centennial ephemera issued by a state historical society, combining portrait-style illustration, textual biography, and compiled service data. Such pamphlets were intended for educational distribution and casual readership, with relatively few surviving in well-preserved condition.
Ohio played a central role in Union military leadership during the Civil War, producing a disproportionate number of senior officers including Ulysses S. Grant.
