A Pictorial History of the Confederacy

"Rather than diminishing with time, fascination with the Confederacy and its heroes seems to grow increasingly strong. This volume features a wide selection of rarely seen photographs of Confederate heroes, such as Robert E. Lee, "Stonewall" Jackson, Jubal Early, Nathan Bedford Forest, A.P. Hill and Jeb Smart, along with details of their military careers and personal lives that are little known to the average reader." "This illustrated history features descriptions of more than forty battles of the War between the States, along with battle maps which illustrate where the Confederates and the Union antagonists were located during these various fights. Coverage begins with the foundations of the Confederacy in 1860 and 1861, during secession. There are sections on major battles, troops, generals, battle flags, and the end of the war - all richly illustrated with photographs that tell more of the Confederacy's true story than any ordinary history can."--BOOK JACKET.
