Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The first major battle of Manassas, also known as Bull Run, was pivotal in the Civil War, resulting in over 800 fatalities and 2,700 injuries. It was here that Confederate General Thomas J. Jackson earned his iconic nickname "Stonewall," as General Barnard Bee famously remarked on his steadfastness. Both sides viewed this battle as potentially decisive for the war's outcome, yet it remains less recognized than other significant confrontations, highlighting its crucial yet overlooked role in shaping the conflict.
