- Synopsis
- Lions of the Dan: The Untold Story of Armisteads Brigade chronicles those men of Picketts Charge over the full course of the Civil War.While time-honored celebrations of Armistead and Pickett focus narrowly on moments at Gettysburg, primary sources declare the untold story of the best of men in the worst of times and refutes Lost Cause myths surrounding Armistead and Pickett. Written by retired scientist J.K. Brandau, for the first time, Lions of the Dan widens the aperture to introduce real heroes and amazing deeds that have been suppressed until now. Brandau presents the experiences of real soldiers in their own words and highlights the much-ignored history of Southside Virginia, presenting the Civil War start to finish from a unique, regional perspective. Readers find their pedestrian notions of the founding of the Souths peculiar institution challenged as they read an objective account of Virginias secession and celebrate the courage and devotion of soldiers on both sides.,
