On the eve of America's great rupture, Ohio counted, measured and recorded itself. These numbers still speak volumes. The Fifth Annual Report of the Commissioner of Statistics to the General Assembly of Ohio for the Year 1861 is a landmark historical government report that gathers official Ohio statistics at the very moment the civil war era economy and society were being reshaped. It offers a precise snapshot of nineteenth century Ohio as it entered the conflict that would define United States history. Compiled as a state statistical report for legislators, researchers and citizens alike, this volume brings together Ohio population statistics alongside economic and demographic statistics covering agriculture, labour, trade, finance and emerging industries. As a primary source reference for 1861 Ohio statistics, it illuminates everyday patterns of work, wealth, migration and production that underpin Ohio history research, US economic history and American Civil War studies. For readers curious about how a single loyal Union state marshalled its people and resources, it offers an unvarnished view grounded in official returns rather than later memory. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This carefully prepared edition serves both casual enthusiasts of Ohio history and serious scholars, giving modern readers direct access to the texture of public life in 1861 while preserving an essential testimony to the state's role in the making of the modern United States.
