Glory to Grave William Kolasinski

Many of us who love the history of the American Civil War period were drawn to it by the unique and colorful characters that populated those times. This book tells of individuals who rose from failure in private life to glory on the battlefield, and of those who fell from the pinnacle of national fame to infamy. These men and women survived the terrible test of war only to face the unsettling unpredictability of life at peace. Some rose to the challenge, gaining fame greater than they knew on the battlefield. Others were not so fortunate. These are their stories.
