Lee. The result is a clear-eyed assessment of the bloody conflict that divided but subsequently united the nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe memoir starts with Alexander heading to Utah to suppress the hostility of Mormons who had refused to establish a municipal government approved by President Buchanan. Only a few years later, Alexander found himself on the opposite side of a much larger rebellion of Confederates wanting to secede from the Union. In the years that follow, he is involved in most major battles including Manassas, Antietam, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and Chickamauga.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlexander describes each battle and battlefield with a keen eye for detail.
