The 144th Ohio Volunteer Infantry formed in May 1864 with the express purpose of performing rear area guard duty, far removed from the front lines of the Civil War. But when Confederate General Jubal Early's army threatened Washington, the 144th Ohio sallied forth to stop it. Relive in the soldiers' own words the experiences of that last summer of the Civil War. Witness first hand the vicious fighting along the banks of the Monocacy River and agony of the Berryville Wagon Raid. This expanded third edition features an improved layout, regimental roster, and index along with several new photos. Drawing extensively from previously unpublished sources, No Greater Glory tells the complete story of northwest Ohio's forgotten regiment, the 144th O.V.I.
