Reviews
"Ronald C. White has given us a vital and vivid portrait of an unlikely military hero who played a key role in the preservation of the Union and therefore in the making of modern America. From his bookish days as a professor at Bowdoin to the fields of Gettysburg, Joshua Chamberlain was a man of principle and of action, a surprising officer whose conviction and courage made all the difference. A marvelous book." --Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of And There Was Light "Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain is one of the most famous soldiers who fought at the battle of Gettysburg. Ronald C. White chronicles that story and Chamberlain's other Civil War exploits, but the distinguishing feature of this fine biography is its in-depth account of the varied achievements of this extraordinary American hero in a lifetime that ranged over more than eight decades." --James M. McPherson, author of Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era "A thoroughly engaging portrait of the life and career of Civil War hero Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain. Ronald C. White demonstrates once again his mastery of the biographical art with a fresh assessment of Chamberlain's complicated yet inspiring journey." --Joan Waugh, author of U.S. Grant: American Hero, American Myth, "A vital and vivid portrait of an unlikely military hero who played a key role in the preservation of the Union and therefore in the making of modern America. From his bookish days as a professor at Bowdoin to the fields of Gettysburg, Joshua Chamberlain was a man of principle and of action, a surprising officer whose conviction and courage made all the difference. A marvelous book." --Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of And There Was Light "This evocative biography of Joshua Chamberlain manages to be both dramatic and understated--like the great war hero himself. Readers hoping for a rousing account of Chamberlain's heroics at Little Round Top will get not only a riveting, but a definitive, version of that battle-changing moment at Gettysburg. But White also opens a window onto the nineteenth-century worlds of military service, politics, and academia, which Chamberlain bestrode with a unique combination of drama and dignity fully reflected in the narrative." --Harold Holzer, winner of the Lincoln Prize "Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain is one of the most famous soldiers who fought at the battle of Gettysburg. Ronald C. White chronicles that story and Chamberlain's other Civil War exploits, but the distinguishing feature of this fine biography is its in-depth account of the varied achievements of this extraordinary American hero in a lifetime that ranged over more than eight decades." --James M. McPherson, author of Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era " On Great Fields is one of those exceedingly rare biographies that is beautifully written and superbly researched, as well as a truly inspirational tale. It is a phenomenal account of an extraordinary individual." --General David Petraeus, U.S. Army (Ret.), and co-author (with Andrew Roberts) of Conflict: The Evolution of Warfare from 1945 to Ukraine "A thoroughly engaging portrait of the life and career of Civil War hero Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain. Ronald C. White demonstrates once again his mastery of the biographical art with a fresh assessment of Chamberlain's complicated yet inspiring journey." --Joan Waugh, author of U.S. Grant: American Hero, American Myth "[White] delivers a satisfying biography . . . A revealing portrait of an American hero who deserves even wider recognition." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review "By delving deeply into Chamberlain's intellectual and spiritual life, White successfully reconciles his subject's contradictory reputation as both a 'bookworm college and seminary student' and a 'risk-taking Civil War soldier.' Civil War fans and general history readers alike should take note." --Publishers Weekly, "Ronald C.
