Life and Military Career of Thomas Jonathan Jackson, Lieutenant-General in the Confederate Army by Addey, Markinfield - 1863

New York: Charles T. Evans, 1863. First Edition. Small Octavo. Portrait frontispiece, 240 pages. Written a generation before the Professor at the British Military Staff College, Lieutenant Colonel G.F.R. Henderson's important biography of Stonewall Jackson. This was among the earliest and the most interesting accounts of one of the Confederacy's most remarkable generals. As Frank Van Diver noted, his work was among the most collectible of the first biographies. Bound in red cloth, spine lettering gilt but fading, dark brown coated endpapers. A very good copy.
