Citizen-soldier Strong Vincent was many things: Harvard graduate,
lawyer, political speaker, descendent of pilgrims and religious
refugees, husband, father, brother. But his greatest contribution
to history is as the saviour of the Federal left on the second day
at Gettysburg, when he and his men held Little Round Top against
overwhelming Confederate numbers. Forgotten by history in favour of
his subordinate, Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, Vincent faded into
relative obscurity in the decades following his death. This book
restores Vincent to his rightful place among the heroes of the
battle of Gettysburg: presenting his life story using new,
never-before-published sources and archival material to bring the
story of one of the most forgotten officers of the American Civil
War back to the attention of readers and historians.
