In this text, Wayne Mahood examines the life of Brevet General
James S. Wadsworth. Wadsworth was a successful lawyer and
influential New York politician when the Civil War broke out. His
wealth, strong anti-slavery views and active support of President
Lincoln made him a controversial public figure in the early war
years. In 1863, he was given a field command and proved himself to
be one of the Union's most able and daring commanders, although he
died before the war ended. His battlefield boldness and righteous
resolve to end slavery is, as former US Congressman James W.
Symington says, a vivid reminder that our Civil War was, indeed,
fought on moral grounds.
