Overview

In early August 1862, Confederate Maj. Gen. Stonewall Jackson took to the field with his Army of the Valley for one last fight – one that would also turn out to be his last independent command. The Battle of Cedar Mountain had major implications and this book describes the violent battle and its aftermath within the ranks of the Federal army. AUTHOR: A life-long student of the Civil War, Michael Block moved to Fauquier County, Virginia, in 2004 and developed a deep appreciation of the war's impact on Culpeper County. As a public historian, he gives battlefield tours and lectures, focusing on the stirring wartime events in Culpeper, including at Cedar Mountain. Retiring from the United States Air Force in 2001, he continues supporting the U.S. Government as a consultant. Mike is the vice-president of the Friends of Cedar Mountain Battlefield. 150 images, 9 maps

Reviews

The text is crisp, clear, and well organized. The chapters are amply supplied with detail, anecdotes, and period quotations, along with well-captioned illustrations and maps, several interesting appendices, and a detailed order of battle for both sides. Along the way, Michael offers important insight into Jackson's development as a senior Confederate field commander. This is a valuable read for anyone, seasoned or novice, interested in the Civil War, whether you are at home or roaming the battlefield. -- Tennessee Valley Civil War Roundtable
