a log of ssh logins and attempts will be in "/var/log/auth.log" and the command to view the log will be "sudo nano /var/log/auth.log"
you can obviously chose your editor/viewer of choice. If you are using the graphical desktop then you can use the log file viewer under system > administration. In log file viewer you can apply filters to show just SSH Login History.

Hope this Helps
