Listed here are some books that I found helpful in understanding more fully the history of the 14th Ohio Veteran Volunteer Infantry. Some are out of print, while others are available at most bookstores or libraries.

These books were published before the turn of the century and may be hard to locate.

Most of these books are either still in print or can be usually be found at most libraries.

• Shiloh: The Battle That Changed the Civil War, by Larry J. Daniel. (The role played by the 14th Ohio in this campaign was minimal, but if you would like to learn more about this important battle this book is an excellent place to start.)

• This Terrible Sound, by Peter Cozzens. (Account of the Battle of Chickamauga, and one of my favorites. The 14th OVI is actually mentioned numerous times!)

• The Shipwreck of Their Hopes, by Peter Cozzens. (Details the Battles for Chattanooga, including Lookout Mountain and Mission Ridge)

• Echoes of Battle: The Struggle for Chattanooga, by Richard A. Baumgardner and Larry M. Strayer. (Probably my all-time favorite book as regards the 14th Ohio. Includes numerous pictures and first-hand accounts.)

• Echoes of Battle: The Atlanta Campaign, by Richard A. Baumgardner and Larry M. Strayer.

• Campaign for Atlanta, by William R. Scaife.

• March to the Sea, by William R. Scaife. (Both of Mr. Scaife's books contain excellent maps and descriptions of the campaigns and battles.)
