This book was written by Ralph Lowell Eckert, published in 1993, the narrative is 344 pages and is illustrated with black and white photos and maps. John Brown Gordon's career of prominent public service spanned four of America's most turbulent decades. Born in Upson County, Georgia, in 1832, Gordon practiced law in Atlanta and, and in the years immediately preceding the Civil War, developed coal mines in northwest Georgia. In 1861, he responded to the Confederate call to arms by raising a company of volunteers. His subsequent rise from Captain to Corps Commander was unmatched in the Army of Northern Virginia. He emerged from the Civil War as one of the south's most respected generals, and the reputation that Gordon earned while "wearing the gray" significantly influenced almost every aspect of his life for the next forty years. This paper back book is in excellent condition.
