Scott Mingus

Scott L. Mingus, Sr. is a miniature wargamer[1], Civil War blogger[2], and published non-fiction author[3] currently living near York, Pennsylvania.

Particular Wikipedia interests are topics related to Ohio in the American Civil War and Pennsylvania in the American Civil War. I am a native of Zanesville, Ohio, and am a direct descendant of numerous soldiers in the Union Army, including two of my great-great-grandfathers. Several of my ancestors fought on Cemetery Hill in the 7th West Virginia Volunteer Infantry Regiment during the 1863 Battle of Gettysburg.

Here are links to two of my most popular Civil War books:

• Flames Beyond Gettysburg: The Gordon Expedition, June 1863 Flames website
• The Louisiana Tigers in the Gettysburg Campaign amazon.com
