These combined biographies of Generals Robert E. Lee, Thomas J. Jackson, and J. E B. Stuart are a welcome antidote to our modern age’s attraction to the banal and ridiculous in children’s literature. Written on a level for young people, the importance of duty, honor, and courage displayed by these moral exemplars shows forth in almost every circumstance of their lives. The children of today need to meet these heroes who sacrificed everything for their families and nation.
