Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A devoutly religious man with an unrelenting disdain for Yankees, Daniel Harvey Hill was among the fiercest warriors to ever stride a battlefield. A West Point graduate renowned for unmatched courage in the Mexican War, he carried that valor into the Civil War, charging into the bloodiest clashes fought by the Army of Northern Virginia and the Army of Tennessee. Controversy trailed him relentlessly, as inescapable as his own shadow. In this groundbreaking cradle-to-grave biography - the first of its kind - award-winning author Chris J. Hartley delivers a compelling reassessment of one of the Confederacy's most enigmatic figures, illuminating the complex legacy of a soldier in gray whose life demands fresh exploration. A native South Carolinian, Daniel Harvey Hill stood at the heart of the Civil War's most defining moments - and at the center of its fiercest controversies. From his reluctant assault on Union General George B. McClellan's James River transports in 1862 to his role in negotiating the contentious prisoner cartel, Hill's actions repeatedly drew the ire of his superiors. He was blamed for the loss of Special Orders No. 191 during the Maryland Campaign. Hill also found himself at odds with General Lee, after which Lee reportedly orchestrated his departure from the Army of Northern Virginia. Hill's defiance persisted, and he clashed with Lee over reinforcements for the Gettysburg Campaign. When he was sent west to command a corps in the Army of Tennessee, Hill's decisions on the field at Chickamauga stirred debate during and after the battle. His participation in the 1863 generals' revolt against Braxton Bragg strained his relationship with Confederate President Jefferson Davis. Known for his sharp tongue, Hill spared no one-politicians, soldiers, sailors, and even kin-earning both loathing and admiration. General Lee once remarked that Hill croaked, yet others revered the polarizing figure for his unyielding spirit. Before the war, Hill shaped young minds as a professor at Davidson College; afterward, he left a lasting mark as president of the University of Arkansas and Georgia Military College, instilling his staunch Southern perspective in a new generation. As an editor, writer, and commentator, he further sculpted the Confederacy's enduring legacy. What fueled this complex, combat-driven man? Was it the illnesses that haunted him, the grief of losing four children, or something deeper? In the meticulously researched biography Confederate General D. H. Hill: A Military Biography, Hartley draws from a wealth of archival, published works, newspapers, and other sources to reveal a Daniel Harvey Hill far more nuanced than traditional interpretations suggest. A flawed yet captivating figure, Hill's influence on Civil War history remains undeniable - and unforgettable. AUTHOR: A graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chris J. Hartley is the author of several magazine articles and three books: The Lost Soldier: The Ordeal of a World War II GI From the Home Front to the Huertgen Forest; Stoneman's Raid, 1865; and Stuart's Tarheels: James B.

Paperback. Condizione: New. When Confederate Major General J.E.B. Stuart said "North Carolina has done nobly in this army," he had one of his own men to thank: Brigadier General James Byron Gordon. A protege of Stuart, Gordon was the consummate nineteenth-century landowner, politician, and businessman. Despite a lack of military training, he rose rapidly through the ranks and, as the commander of all North Carolina cavalrymen in the Army of Northern Virginia, he helped bring unparalleled success to Stuart's famed Confederate cavalry. This updated biography, originally published in 1996, chronicles Gordon's early life and military career and, through his men, takes a fresh look at the vaunted Army of Northern Virginia--its battles, controversies, and troops.
