Quite Well Done4
Cayton does a splendid job of tracking the development of Ohio and Ohioans and, very much to his credit, he exhibits a wide range of personal profiles rather than just rehash the notables like astronauts and Presidents. Also to his credit he brings to light the nature of the times with greater candor and less "political correctness" than many academic authors these days, and that proves of immense interest.
He even - at the very last of the book - finally reveals the true character of Ohioans, past and present - but I won't spoil it for you. It's both a light, and an enlightening, read. Enjoy.
