| HISTORY OF THE TwENTY-FIRST OHIO.
By Capt. s. s. Garfield. Published by the author
at Scotch Ridge o. Price 81.
This is one of the regimental histories that
it is a delight to read, whether ono ever so
much as saw the regiment or not. The regi-
ment was one of the very best in the army.
1t went in early and staid until the last, and
| saw abundance of all the varied experiences
that came to hard marching hard fighting
regiment, commanded all the time by brave,
energetic, jealous officers, who kept it con-
| stantly at the front. The author shared in
| every one of these experiences He went out
as the junior Captain of the regiment, and was
constantly with it during its four years of
service; was on nearly every march. in every
battle, captured with it. in prison, and marched
at the head of his company through Georgia
and the Carolinas, and in the Grand Review.
! Capt. Can field does not make the common
| mistake Of an ambitious attempt to write
| history. He is plain, blunt soldier, and tells
the story of his regiment in clear straight
| forward way. with no fulsome aduiation, and
no conceament of unpleasant facts. We wish
often that he had told more of the terrible
fighting that his regiment had, but then a
severe fight got to be such common place
thing in the history of the 2lst Ohio that it
is hardly to be expected that member of it
would enlarge particularly upon any one en-
gagement. The book is a thoroughly sodierly
i one. and when the reader begins he is sorry
that lie has TO stop at the eud.
