Book Description
Longarm’s about to make three kidnappers wish they’d never been born… It’s sort of an unwritten code of the West—if you shoot a woman who’s trying to steal your horse, you promise to find her kidnapped daughter. United States Deputy Marshal Custis Long was all set for a relaxing vacation up in the mountains, catching trout and smoking cheroots as he watched the sunset. Instead, he’s startled out of his bedroll by someone trying to steal his horse. Longarm shoots first, only to discover the “thief” is actually a woman in desperate straits. After getting her help and learning that her sixteen-year-old daughter has been abducted by three men, Longarm sets off to recover the girl. But the mountains hold many surprises, and this is one rescue mission he may not return from…

The Long Arm of Lee
Author: Jennings Cropper Wise
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 9780803297340
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
Originally published in 1915, when Jennings Cropper Wise was commandant of the Virginia Military Institute, The Long Arm of Lee has never been surpassed as an authoritative study of the Confederate artillery in the Civil War. Volume 1 described the organization and tactics of the field batteries of General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia from the time of the Battle of Bull Run through the Maryland invasion. Volume 2, beginning with an account of the Chancellorsville campaign, includes a close look at the Battle of Gettysburg, in which tactical errors made by the Confederate side are reassessed. There was heroism aplenty, not only from generals like J.E.B. Stuart and Stonewall Jackson but also from ordinary artillerymen who fought doggedly and resignedly until the end.
