Stonewall: Book of an incredible man's life.

Stonewall was an incredible book that gave lots of info on Stonewall's experiances in the Civil War. This book helped a lot in my reports, and also gave me more unknown info on the Civil and Mexican wars. It talked about Stonewall's early years, his years at West Point, and his conflicts in the wars he participated in. His conflicts were both external and internal. He had problems in West Point with his perspiration problem, and his will to get a chance to prove himself in battle. All and all, I recommend this book because it is informative and fun to read.

Stonewall

I thought it was a very good book. I would recommend it to everybody that likes the Civil War. It does deserve five stars because the Civil War was neat. There is lots of suspense in the book.

I learned more about him from the book then my history books

Excellent. I learned so much about Jackson, and felt so sad when he died at the end of the book. He was a big hero for the Confederacy. But what was strange is that he sucked lemons. Cool.
