About This Item
Zenith Press, 2009. New book, 272 pages. John Crawford Vaughn was one of the most famous men in Tennessee in the nineteenth century. He was the first man to raise a regiment in the state ( the Third Tennessee)...and one of the very last Confederate generals to surrender, taking the reader from the battles of new Creek Bridge, the first battle of Parnassus, Vickers burg- where Vaughn repelled Sherman's advance - to the final council of war with then-President Davis. The first biography of this poorly understood figure, this book reveals new information about Vaughn's location on the field of crucial battles; his multiple wounds; his role as Jefferson Davis' friend and escort; the fact that his wife and family were captured by Union soldiers; and, the effect of this knowledge on his performance as a military commander. It also serves as an admirable unit histories of one of the premiere cavalry forces of the war, and an outstanding biography of a tenacious fighter who ended his days as State Senator for the People of Tennessee who he had fought for so nobly.. Hard Cover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
