The Centaur of the South, a Military Sketch of Turner Ashby, Annotated Edition.
Description:
Here is a book that the eminent Confederate chaplain, J. William Jones, who labored with the Army of Northern Virginia said, " ...should be in every library." Regrettably, biographies of men like Turner Ashby (1828-1862) are not in every library, but they should be in your library. In a day when there is a dearth of wholesome role models for youth, it is wise not to look at contemporary athletes and rock stars but to men of history--those who possessed real character--those who found succor in God rather than in a bottle or a pill. This book chronicles the life of Turner Ashby, which provides inspirational and exciting reading for all ages. The editor, an academic historian, has provided a great deal of supplemental information including a section of the Shenandoah Valley Campaign of Stonewall Jackson in which Ashby participated. This particular edition is unique in that it has many extras without taking away from the original.
