William A. Blair Professor of American History

Book Title: Fighting for the Confederacy

Author: Gary W. Gallagher

Selection Statement:

Dr. Gallagher was my advisor and mentor when I conducted my graduate work at Penn State. Along with another graduate student, I collaborated on compiling the index. It was a labor of love on a truly wonderful book and for a fine scholar. Porter Alexander's writings should be a standard book consumed by anyone interested in America's Civil War.
