Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians' attempts to understand legendary Confederate General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson have proved uneven at best and often contentious. An occasionally enigmatic and eccentric college professor before the Civil War, Jackson died midway through the conflict, leaving behind no memoirs and relatively few surviving letters or documents. In Inventing Stonewall Jackson, Wallace Hettle offers an innovative and distinctive approach to interpreting Stonewall by examining the lives and agendas of those authors who shape our current understanding of General Jackson. Newspaper reporters, friends, relatives, and fellow soldiers first wrote about Jackson immediately following the Civil War. Most of them, according to Hettle, used portions of their own life stories to frame that of the mythic general. Hettle argues that the legend of Jackson's rise from poverty to power was likely inspired by the rags-to-riches history of his first biographer, Robert Lewis Dabney. Dabney's own successes and Presbyterian beliefs probably shaped his account of Jackson's life as much as any factual research. Many other authors inserted personal values into their stories of Stonewall, perplexing generations of historians and writers. Subsequent biographers contributed their own layers to Jackson's myth and eventually a composite history of the general came to exist in the popular imagination. Later writers, such as the liberal suffragist Mary Johnston, who wrote a novel about Jackson, and the literary critic Allen Tate, who penned a laudatory biography, further shaped Stonewall's myth. As recently as 2003, the film Gods and Generals, which featured Jackson as the key protagonist, affirmed the longevity and power of his image. Impeccable research and nuanced analysis enable Hettle to use American culture and memory to reframe the Stonewall Jackson narrative and provide new ways to understand the long and contended legacy of one of the Civil War's most popular Confederate heroes.

Stonewall Jackson: A Biography offers a complete yet concise account of Jackson's life and career, illuminating the forces and events that shaped both. The study is organized chronologically, beginning with Jackson's hardscrabble upbringing in the mountains of western Virginia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deemed "irreplaceable" by Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson assumed his nickname during the Battle of Bull Run in the Civil War. It is said that The Army of Northern Virginia never fully recovered from the loss of Stonewall's leadership when he was accidentally shot by one of his own men and died in 1863. Davis highlights Stonewall Jackson's a general who emphasized the importance of reliable information and early preparedness (he so believed in information that he had a personal mapmaker with him at all times) and details Jackson's many lessons in strategy and leadership.

Book excerpt: There stands Jackson like a stone wall -- rally round the Virginians! It was at the First Battle of Bull Run that General Barnard Bee made this statement and gave Thomas J. Jackson his famous nickname. During the course of this battle, which occurred in July 1861, Jackson had led his brigade to face the oncoming Union troops at the crest of Henry Hill. There he made his stand and with tenacity and bravery as he turned the tide in the battle in the Confederacy's favor. Within months since the war had begun Jackson had cemented his reputation as a tactically brilliant general who fearlessly led his brigade into the heart of the action. He would remain a terror of Union troops for the next two years until his death as a result of friendly fire during the chaos of the Battle of Chancellorsville. John Esten Cooke's brilliant biography of this legendary Confederate general separates fact from fiction and provides the reader with a vivid depiction of what Thomas J. Jackson was actually like. Cooke draws his evidence from official papers, contemporary narratives as well as from his personal acquaintance with Jackson to create an extremely thorough and readable account. This biography covers all aspects of Jackson's life, from his early years to the beginning of his military career in Mexico, right through to all of his actions in the famous campaigns of the civil war. As a military man himself who saw action in the American Civil War Cooke is able to provide fascinating insight into the campaigns and battles that Jackson fought in, from the Seven Days Battles to the Northern Virginia Campaign as well as Antietam, Fredericksburg along with Jackson's last actions at Chancellorsville. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the life of one of the most important figures of the American Civil War and the impact that he made through the course of that conflict. John Esten Cooke was an American author and soldier. During the American Civil War he had served as staff officer for J. E. B. Stuart and William N. Pendleton. His biography of Stonewall Jackson was published shortly after Jackson's death in 1863. Cooke passed away in 1886.

Book excerpt: Discover the remarkable life of Stonewall Jackson...Although he finds himself on the wrong side of history, Stonewall Jackson has become known as one of the American Civil War's most brilliant military strategists. His ride to acclaim was not easy; Jackson grew up poor, was orphaned by seven, jumped between different relatives' homes, and had no real education, yet at 18 he was accepted into the prestigious Military Academy at West Point. Jackson spent most of his adult life teaching, and when he joined the Confederates to fight in the Civil War in 1861, he was entirely out of military practice. Nevertheless, throughout Jackson's two-year service in the war, he won all but one battle he led. From the First Battle of Bull Run to his campaign in the Shenandoah Valley, Jackson managed to conquer most of his battles with his impressive military wits, often achieving what many considered to be impossible. Discover a plethora of topics such as Life Before the Civil War Stonewall Jackson Earns His Name The Shenandoah Valley Campaign The Second Battle of Bull Run Harpers Ferry and the Battles of Antietam and Fredericksburg Final Year and Death And much more!
