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.

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.
