The Real Story Of Brigadier General John Hunt Morgan's Indiana-Ohio Raid In July 1863

Against direct orders from General Braxton Bragg Brigadier General John Hunt Morgan crossed the Ohio River at Morvins landing, Indiana with two brigades and then crossed southeastern Indiana and southern Ohio. You will be able to follow this expedition by reading from original reports, diary entries and books written by the participants from its beginning until its conclusion at West Point, near Salineville, Ohio. From these original records you will be able to make your own decisions as to what happened rather than depend on an author's interpretation. You will also be able to read some of the men's experiences in P.O.W. camps and efforts to escape back to Confederate territory after the expedition was brought to a close by Union forces in eastern Ohio.
