On April 6, 1865, General Robert E. Lee and his Confederate Army of Northern Virginia lost one of the more devastating – but forgotten – battles of the war. Along the banks of Sailor’s Creek, Virginia, blue and gray dueled in the last major clash before Lee’s surrender at Appomattox three days later. This is the saga of that tragic spring day at Sailor’s Creek where Lee exclaimed, "My God! Has the army dissolved?" as he watched his shattered legions flee the battlefield. Lee’s Last Stand offers a compelling look at the last battle of the once mighty Army of Northern Virginia. Lee’s Last Stand is Derek Smith’s second book on the American Civil War. A former journalist and public relations executive, his first book on the conflict, Civil War Savannah, was released in 1997. A native of Bishopville, South Carolina, Smith’s works have been published in numerous magazines and newspapers. His 1993 book Glory Yards depicted the Georgia-Florida college football rivalry. His first novel, The Sentinels, was published in 2001. He now lives in Williamsville, New York. Used Book in Good Condition
