520 |a Many people are aware that Jeb Stuart was a famous cavalry general who rode for the Confederacy. Yet, how did this twenty-nine-year-old former U.S. Army lieutenant become the 1860's version of a media sensation? At the beginning of June 1862, George McClellan's huge Union army stood poised to decimate the Confederate capital of Richmond. The city faced chaos as thousands of civilians fled. Confederate army commander Robert E. Lee wanted to launch his own attack but he needed to know what stood on McClellan's right flank. Historian John Fox uses numerous eyewitness accounts to place the reader in the dusty saddle of both the hunter and the hunted as Stuart's men sliced deep behind Union lines to gather information for Lee. This first ever book written about the raid follows Stuart's 110-mile route, all the while chased by Union troopers commanded by Stuart's father-in-law, Philip St. George Cooke.
