"Will Greene's several essays in this book offer a fresh synopsis of the general in summary & in three of his most important campaigns...These gracefully written studies of slices of Jackson's history, before & during the war, will bring the reader in close contact with one of the most fascinating Americans of the Civil War era, & in fact of all of our national past."--Robert K. Krick, author as well as Chief Historian of the Fredericksburg & Spotsylvania National Military Park. "Stonewall Jackson remains one of the most compelling figures of the Civil War. Wilson Greene's closely argued essays underscore Jackson's enduring potential as a subject for serious study--& make the case for the general's claim to a position in the first rank of American soldiers. They should find an eager readership among students of Confederate military biography & of operations in the Eastern Theater during the first two years of the Civil War."--Gary W. Gallagher, author as well as Head of the Department of History at Pennsylvania State University. To order, contact: Butternut & Blue, 3411 Northwind Rd., Baltimore, MD 21234. Phone (410) 256-9220 (after 3:15 EST).… (more)
