"This is my native state.  I will not leave it to serve the South.  Down the street yonder is the old cemetery, and my father lies there going to dust.  If I fight, I tell you, it shall be for his bones." -Lew Wallace, after the 1860 election

I finished the book this morning.  It was a real insight into a local hero of mine from where I grew up.  It also sheds light on the relationship of West Point officers and citizen soldiers of the late 19th century.  An all around good read for a CW buff.
