Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why were Generals Lee and Jackson so successful in their partner- ship in trying to win the war for the South? What was it about their styles, friendship, even their faith, that cemented them together into a fighting machine that consistently won despite often overwhelming odds against them?The Great Partnership has the power to change how we think about Confederate strategic decision-making and the value of personal relationships among senior leaders responsible for organizational survival. Those relationships in the Confederate high command were particularly critical for victory, especially the one that existed between the two great Army of Northern Virginia generals.It has been over two decades since any author attempted a joint study of the two generals. At the very least, the book will inspire a very lively debate among the thousands of students of Civil War his- tory. At best, it will significantly revise how we evaluate Confederate strategy during the height the war and our understanding of why, in the end, the South lost.

Download or read book The Life of Stonewall Jackson written by John Esten Cooke and published by Digital Scanning Inc. This book was released on 2000-12 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life of Stonewall Jackson was written while John Esten Cooke was encamped with General Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson and his troops during the Civil War. Based on his personal observations of the General, who was often compared to Napoleon, Cooke combines them with information taken from official papers, contemporary narratives and personal acquaintances. “Stonewall” Jackson is considered by military authorities to have been an outstanding leader, skilled tactician and one of the ablest of the Confederate commanders. He earned his popular nickname at the First Battle of Bull Run (1861), where his troops stood against the Union forces “like a stone wall”. John Esten Cooke examines Jackson’s life from birth, through his career at West Point, as well as his exploits during the Civil war. He describes how the so-called “Stonewall Brigade”, combined with troops led by Robert E. Lee, defeated Gen. George B. McClellan and three Union armies at the Battle of Richmond. He examines how Jackson defeated General John Pope, ensuring a Confederate victory at the Second Battle of Bull Run, on to the battle of Chancellorsville on May 2, 1863, where, in a tragic accident, he was shot and fatally wounded by friendly fire. Cooke, a Virginian, tells the fascinating story of Stonewall Jackson, the enigmatic American icon.
