Reviews

"Jones produces almost a day-by-day account of Logan's activities both political and military during the war. But the book is more than a chronology of Logan's life during this period. Unlike some one-sided cam­paign biographies of Logan that were published at that time, Jones' volume gives a fairly objective account of how the soldier and the politician were interwoven in this charismatic and complicated individual."--South­ern Illinoisan
