  • The Triangle Histories of the Civil War: Leaders - Stonewall Jackson

    Chris Hughes

    Triangle Histories introduce a new concept to American history series. Each title in this collection interweaves and overlaps with others in its own unique way.

Grant, and the biography Abraham Lincoln, overlap and intersect at a number of points. Grant was the Union commander at Vicksburg at a time when Lincoln was under great pressure to replace the general. Because the Triangle Histories provide a format in which major subjects and themes can be considered from various angles, each collection offers a truly unique way to learn and understand the topic more completely. Each book stands alone, but as a set, the Civil War collection forms a powerful and engaging way in which to learn about one of the most painful eras our nation has ever endured.
