Stonewall Jackson was a military genius at once peculiar and perfect, a fearless soldier
in battle but a God-fearing man who hesitated to kill on Sunday. He broke the rules of war to win, and
yet his tactics are studied in military academies the world over. Burke Davis brings the color, vivid
characterization, and immediacy of the best fiction to this fascinating biography.

From the remarkable Valley Campaign through the Seven Days, Manassas, Antietam, Fredericksburg,
and the masterful though tragic sweep at Chancellorsville where Jackson was felled by one of his own
soldiers, this is a compelling narrative of men and war.
