The Long Roll

Stonewall Jackson's campaign in the Shenandoah, from the ranks. Mary Johnston's father had fought in the war, she read the regimental records and the ground itself, and the book was criticised in the North for the sympathy it showed the Confederate private and in the South for refusing to make the war glorious. Fifty-nine plates by painters including Winslow Homer and Albert Bierstadt carry the campfire, the trail and the war party through the Valley campaign.
