Deserve s] a place on every Civil War bookshelf.--New York Times Book Review

Trulock] brings her subject alive and escorts him through a brilliant career. One can easily say that the definitive work on Joshua Chamberlain has now been done.--James Robertson, Richmond Times-Dispatch

An example of history as it should be written. The author combines exhaustive research with an engaging prose style to produce a compelling narrative which will interest scholars and Civil War buffs alike.--Journal of Military History

A solid biography. . . . It does full justice to an astonishing life.--Library Journal

This remarkable biography traces the life and times of Joshua L. Chamberlain, the professor-turned-soldier who led the Twentieth Maine Regiment to glory at Gettysburg, earned a battlefield promotion to brigadier general from Ulysses S. Grant at Petersburg, and was wounded six times during the course of the Civil War. Chosen to accept the formal Confederate surrender at Appomattox, Chamberlain endeared himself to succeeding generations with his unforgettable salutation of Robert E. Lee's vanquished army. After the war, he went on to serve four terms as governor of his home state of Maine and later became president of Bowdoin College. He wrote prolifically about the war, including The Passing of the Armies, a classic account of the final campaign of the Army of the Potomac.

Better way to open a can
Color: Blue
I may not have arthritis, but it saves time and energy. I will be buying another one for the band concession stand. It beats using an original can opener.

Excellent Can Opener – Safe, Effortless, and Smartly Designed!
I’m so impressed with this electric can opener! From the moment I took it out of the box, it was incredibly easy to use—just one touch and it does all the work for you. What really sets it apart is how it opens cans with a smooth edge, so there's absolutely no worry about scratching yourself or dealing with sharp, jagged lids. That’s a huge relief, especially for someone like me who cooks often and has had accidents with traditional openers in the past. The design is compact and sleek, making it easy to store in a drawer, and it feels solid and well-made in the hand. It’s also surprisingly quiet while running. I’ve used it on all types of cans, and it works like a charm every time. Honestly, I didn’t expect to love a can opener this much, but it makes such a difference in the kitchen. If you're thinking about getting one, this is 100% worth it!
