Two rivers meet here, and a third is born.

Where the Walhonding and the Tuscarawas join to form the Muskingum stood Coshocton - in the 1770s a principal town of the Lenape, a capital and council place the young United States had to reckon with. Chief White Eyes worked for peace between his people and the new nation, and helped shape the Treaty of Fort Pitt in 1778. Three years later, an American expedition burned the town, and its people scattered north.

Coshocton County: Union of Waters tells the whole story in order, with nothing skipped - the Wyandot town of Conchake and the smallpox winter of 1752, Bouquet's expedition and the return of more than two hundred captives, the canal boat Monticello landing at Roscoe in 1830 and Roscoe rising into one of the great wheat ports of the Ohio & Erie Canal, coal under the hills, the floods of 1898 and 1913, a farm boy from Chili named George Crile who helped found the Cleveland Clinic, and William Green of Coshocton leading America's labor movement for nearly three decades.

Book Five of a history of all eighty-eight Ohio counties.
