Table of ContentsReviews"""Kill Jeff Davis is a fascinating historical study centred on a rollicking good story, some questionable heroes, and a number of intriguing controversies. It is very readable, and contributes valuable insights not just into the purpose and outcomes of the Raid but into the way the war was fought outside the great set piece battles."" - Tony Chew, American Civil War Round Table (UK) ""Using every scrap of evidence that he has uncovered, including many previously overlooked by historians, Bruce Venter has painstakingly reconstructed the ill-fated Kilpatrick-Dahlgren raid to free Union POWs in Richmond. Venter convincingly attributes the failure of the raid mainly to Dahlgren's mistakes and also finds the young colonel responsible for the notorious orders to assassinate Jefferson Davis and his cabinet.""--James M. McPherson, author of The War That Forged a Nation: Why the Civil War Still Matters" Author InformationBruce M. Venter is an independent historian and the author of The Battle of Hubbardton: The Rear Guard Action That Saved America. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
