Gray Ghost by James A Ramage
Confederate John Singleton Mosby forged his reputation on the most exhilarating of military activities: the overnight raid. Mosby possessed a genius for guerrilla and psychological warfare, taking control of the dark to make himself the Gray Ghost of Union nightmares. Gray Ghost, the first full biography of Confederate raider John Mosby, reveals new information on every aspect of Mosby's life, providing the first analysis of his impact on the Civil War from the Union viewpoint.
"Offers a lively, immensely detailed record of Mosby's wartime career and a vivid summary of his equally turbulent postwar life" - New York Times Book Review "No biographer of Mosby has woven the various threads of Mosby's life together as deftly as Ramage does in this portrait of one of the Civil War's most compelling figures." - Civil War Times "The most thoroughly researched biography of Mosby to date." - Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star"
