Description
Stonewall Jackson and Winchester, Virginia is a detailed account of the relationship between the famous Confederate general and the town he came to call home. From June 1861 until his death in May 1863, Jackson's values and beliefs resonated deeply with the people of the Shenandoah Valley.
Local historian Jerry Holsworth draws on a range of sources, including diaries, letters, journals, and newspaper articles, to tell the story of Jackson's time in Winchester. He also recounts the key events of the 1862 Shenandoah Valley Campaign, which cemented Jackson's place in local history.
This book provides a unique insight into the bond between Jackson and the people of Winchester, a connection that remains remembered today.
