Inhalt:

Barzilla R. Shaw (1836-1935) was born in a log cabin near Coshocton, Ohio, and died in that city at the age of 99. He lived to see his little town grow from 250 inhabitants to a city of 12,000. Barzilla was a farmer, merchant, Civil War veteran, local civic leader, and devoted family man. When he died he was the oldest resident of the city and the oldest Civil War veteran in Ohio. Although he quit school to make his own way at age 14, Barzilla left a wealth of written material. He submitted numerous editorial letters and poems to the local newspaper, kept daily journals at various periods, filled notebooks with biographical sketches, poems, lists of local Civil War veterans, family trees and much more. A collection of these writings was assembled for this book, including a "Biographical Sketch of My Life," a list of Coshocton businesses in the year 1854, a Shaw family tree, an annotated transcription of his Civil War diary, family photographs, and much more. Indexed.
