Description
Do They Miss Me at Home? The Civil War Letters of William McKnight, Seventh Ohio Volunteer Cavalry
This collection of over one hundred letters offers a unique perspective on the American Civil War. Written by William McKnight, a member of the Seventh Ohio Volunteer Cavalry from 1862 to his death in 1864, these emotion-filled letters reveal the struggles of an entire family during this tumultuous period.
The letters provide detailed accounts of battles in Kentucky and Tennessee, including the Cumberland Gap and Knoxville campaigns. They also respond to General John Hunt Morgan's raid through Ohio, correcting previous claims about McKnight's involvement. Tragically, McKnight was killed in action near Cynthiana, Kentucky, nearly a year after Morgan's men passed through his home.
