Pvt. William Lafayette League was 22 years old when he enlisted in Co. B, 2nd Ohio Volunteer Cavalry. This unit saw extensive action in the west against Stand Watie, William Quantrill, John Hunt Morgan, and Longstreet at Knoxville. In the east they fought under Sheridan at Cedar Creek, Winchester, and other actions in the Shenandoah Valley. The unit had one of the most dramatic records in the cavalry service during the Civil War. This CDV, though stained around the edges, is clear and crisp--sharper than the image shown here. You can see the reenforcement seam in his cavalry trousers, rolled cuffs, and his non-regulation headgear is a nice touch.
