On August 7, the first-ever biography of Union Civil War General Irvin McDowell, the commander at First Bull Run, was published on amazon.com. Frank Simione and I have worked on this book for several years, and are proud to offer SEARCHING FOR IRVING MCDOWELL, FORGOTTEN CIVIL WAR GENERAL to the Civil War readership. Irvin McDowell is no longer forgotten!
Why no one had done a biography of McDowell, who at the time commanded the largest army in American history at First Bull Run, is a mystery. But now McDowell has his biography and the community has the opportunity to read his history.
The book, in both ebook and paperback formats, is available via my web-site and at amazon: https://www.amazon.com/-/e/B00HV4SSWK
