Stonewall Jackson's Book of Maxims
James I. Robertson, Jr., ed. While a cadet at West Point, Jackson began
collecting maxims as part of his quest for status as a gentleman. He
carefully inscribed these maxims in a personal notebook, but the book
disappeared after his death in 1863. Subsequent generations assumed it was
a casualty of time, but in the 1990s, the author discovered the long-lost
book. Here, then, are Jackson's maxims reproduced as he wrote them. 144
pgs., 15 B&W photos and illustrations, 5¾"x 8¼", hdbd.

All
Things for Good -
The Steadfast Fidelity of Stonewall Jackson.
Thomas
Jackson has long been revered as a brilliant military leader and tactician
and one of the shrewdest Confederate commanders. But the man himself is a
study in contrasts. Feared by his enemies and beloved by his men, his
humble and sincere Christian faith seemed at odds with his reputation as a
ferocious warrior. This thoughtful new volume challenges myths that
surround Jackson while celebrating his devout beliefs. 352 pgs., 4¼"x 6¾", hdbd.
