Stonewall Jackson and the American Civil War.

Early edition of "the standard biography of the Confederate commander...sweeping narrative of Jackson’s background, character and pivotal role in the first two years of war, the work contains an abundance of intelligent writing and careful reviews of Jackson’s performance on the battlefield” (Eicher 250). Octavo, two volumes, bound in full diced calf with gilt titles and exquisite tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands, double gilt ruling and tooling to the front and rear panels, all edges gilt, gilt turn-ins, inner dentelles stamped in blind, marbled endpapers, tissue-guarded frontispiece to volume one, with two portrait plates and numerous folding maps, and the large color folding map at the rear of volume one. In near fine condition with a scuff and white specks to volume two. An exceptional example.
