Summary:
One of the most compelling Civil War stories is that of the Fifty-Fourth Regiment, made up of African-American soldiers who volunteered for the Union Army. Their heroic but futile battle at Fort Wagner was memorialized by sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens in Boston Common in 1897. Both the commemorative book and limited-edition volume depict the monument in stirring detail while celebrating its 100-year anniversary. For photography connoisseurs and Civil War buffs.
First Edition, 1973
Summary:
This wonderful book: One Gallant Rush: Robert Shaw and His Brave Black Regiment is an interesting read. This in a side of Civil War history not often told. A true historical saga dramatized in the major motion picture.
'...written with authority and quiet power, this is the history of a period noted for sweeping action and resounding with the names of great men and women....The decisions they made and the things they did serve as dramatic counterpoint to a story that in the best sense of the term is grand.'--Saunders Redding
A young, white army officer is assigned to lead an all-black unit in the Civil War.
