Throw Away the Scabbard, Volume One, of the Chancellorsville Chronicles.

On May 2,1863, Confederate General Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson was accidentally shot by his own men during the Battle of Chancellorsville. One week later, he was dead. After his death, the Army of Northern Virginia, commanded by Robert E. Lee, would not see another victory. That is why many historians point to Jackson’s death as the turning point of the war in the east – the death knell of the Confederacy. But what if Stonewall Jackson had not been shot on that lonely stretch of road in the Virginia wilderness? Would the skill and daring of Lee’s brilliant lieutenant have changed the outcome of the war?

These questions are answered in the exciting Chancellorsville Chronicles. For a sample chapter, please visit Headquarters: Army of Northern Virginia
