O autorze

Stuart A. P. Murray has written many books, both fiction and nonfiction, for young readers. Among his many works about the history of war are Witness to the Civil War, a revision of the 1895 Leslie’s Illustrated History of the Civil War, Civil War Battles & Leaders, and A Time of War, which traces the role of Massachusetts in the American Civil War. In his long years of interest in the Civil War, Murray has found Mathew Brady’s photographs to provide an unsurpassed close-up view of the people and places of this era of crisis in the United States. Murray lives in Petersburgh, New York.
