[EAN: 9780838639573], New book, [PU: Fairleigh Dickinson University Press, Cranbury], Hardcover. Drawing heavily on primary source material, 'The Boy General' is the first full-length account of a remarkable man whose life and careers- lawyer, soldier, politician- illuminate the dramatic changes which transformed American life in the nineteenth century. His Civil War career, comprising the bulk of the book, encompassed almost all the major campaigns in Virginia. Drawing heavily on primary source material, The Boy General is the first full-length account of a remarkable man whose life and careers — lawyer, soldier, politician — illuminate the dramatic changes which transformed American life in the nineteenth century. His Civil War career, comprising the bulk of the book, encompassed almost all the major campaigns in Virginia. Beginning the war as a private and rising to major general, Barlow garnered the reputation as a combat leader of unusual pugnacity and effectiveness. Twice wounded, at Antietam and Gettysburg, he played a key role in the desperate fighting which marked Grant's 1864-65 campaign against Lee. After Appomattox, Barlow returned to civilian life and entered New York State politics. Although he was an effective attorney general, initiating suits against the Tweed Ring, his unfiltered honesty harmed him politically. His public refusal to support his party's efforts during the disputed election of 1876 effectively ended his governmental prospects and he ended his life in private law practice.
