No name in the annals of the Civil War conjures up a more romantic
and awe-inspiring image than that of Confederate Colonel John
Singleton Mosby of Virginia. The epitome of the Southern cavalier,
Colonel Mosby was a charismatic officer whose small band of
partisans outwitted and outfought the Union army on the fields and
farmlands of northern Virginia. So great was the panic inspired by
this one officer's military ingenuity, so prominent was the threat
he created to the Union forces, that he came to be known in the
north as more of a myth than a man. Award-winning historical
fiction and Southern romance author Jessica James penned a unique
look at this iconic figure as a way to share this real-life
soldier's story with her fiction fans. John Mosby was the model for
her fictional character Colonel Alexander Hunter in her novel NOBLE
CAUSE (originally called SHADES OF GRAY). Rather than a dry
biography of the Confederate hero, this book takes readers on a
journey with a ragtag group of Rebels who threw aside the
established rules of warfare, effectively using fear as their
weapon of choice and surprise as their watchword. Read about this
forgotten American Hero in the first of a series of books that look
back on those who played a role in shaping our nation.
