At one time I understood that the reknowed Grant scholar and teacher, Dr John Y. Simon, was gathering material for a Rawlins volume. I learned this from a manuscripts and book seller at Galena, Illinois about a decade ago. Unfortunately Dr Simons passed away last year.

Harrison, I believe, has been overlooked to some degree. Certainly lesser lights have had their adventures retold by an admiring biographer. This may be somewhat understandable as in his autobiography Wilson seems to claim a fair amount of the success of Union arms to his own decisions and input. Never-the-less he had an active, adventurous life and served his commanders and his country well.
