âAn absolute gem of a historyâ for the Confederacyâs Branch-Lane North Carolina Brigade: âHis clear and engaging narrative keeps the reader entrancedâ (Thomas G. Clemens, editor of The Maryland Campaign of 1862). This storied brigade was first led by Lawrence Branch, and then by James Henry Lane, and served with Leeâs Army of Northern Virginia for its entire existence. These Tar Heels fought in nearly every major battle in the Eastern Theater, including the Seven Daysâ Battles, Second Manassas, Sharpsburg (where Branch was killed), Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville (where its members mistakenly shot Stonewall Jackson), Gettysburg (including Pickettâs Charge), the Wilderness, Spotsylvania, North Anna, Cold Harbor, the Petersburg Campaign, and the final retreat to Appomattox. Originally part of A. P. Hillâs famous âLight Division,â the brigade earned high plaudits for its disciplined defensive efforts, hard-hitting attacks, and incredible marching abilities. Its heavy combat exposure, however, resulted in devastating losses. By warâs end, its roll call of casualties far exceeded its number of survivors. Michael Hardyâs General Leeâs Immortals is based upon years of study and grounded on an impressive foundation of sources, which allows the men to speak for themselves as they describe their time in camp, endless hardships, long marches, bloody battles, increasing hunger, and much more. In addition to a dozen original maps, General Leeâs Immortals also includes scores of rare photosâmany of which were previously unpublishedâall of which enhance this well-written and engrossing account. âCombining rigorous research and an innovative organization, General Leeâs Immortals demonstrates what an exceptional unit history can teach us about the Civil War.â âThe Civil War Monitor
