The definitive biography of Major-General John F. Reynolds, one of the finest generals to command in the Union ranks during the Civil War. The book follows Reynolds’ exploits from childhood through his cadet years at West Point, active service in the Mexican War, and then in the Civil War. Universally respected by the men under his command and even within the Confederate ranks; he fought with skill and courage despite often being handicapped by the Union High Command. His lasting legacy rests on his superlative efforts on the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg, arriving in the nick of time to stall and then halt the Confederate advance at the cost of his life.

“A model of its kind.”—New York Times Book Review
