The Civil War and the men and women who lived during that time
continue to interest, preoccupy, and bemuse a wide and various
population. This volume provides information on 872 men and women
of the Union, covering those who influenced the course of public
policy, opinion, and events. Coverage of political leaders, such as
congressmen and cabinet officers, is comprehensive, while others,
such as editors, photographers, and abolitionists, are covered
selectively. Military leaders are included for specific
contributions to the Union. Each profile provides biographical
information about the person, stressing the war years and offering
an assessment of the individual's place in the Union. Each entry
concludes with bibliographic sources. Taken together, the profiles
illumine those mystic chords of memory that continue to tie us yet
to the Civil War generation.
