À propos de ce contenu audio

In With Lee in Virginia, follow the gripping journey of Vincent Wingfield, the son of a prosperous Virginian planter. As the nation plunges into war, Vincent bravely enlists in the cavalry and finds himself in the thick of action under various commanding generals across Virginia. His adventures are not limited to the battlefield; he faces personal foes, orchestrates daring prison escapes, rescues a young lady, embarks on espionage missions, and even undertakes the recovery of a stolen slave. As he rises through the ranks of the Confederate army, the aftermath of the war leads him back to his mothers plantation, where he begins a new chapter of his life. Author G.A. Henty offers a compelling overview of the Civil Wars causes, while also detailing the pivotal battles and movements of the army in Virginia and beyond. Through the lens of an Englishman who abhorred slavery but acknowledged the relatively better treatment of many plantation slaves, this engaging narrative explores complex themes. With Lee in Virginia provides an insightful look at the key generals—Lee, Jackson, Stuart, Grant, McClellan, Sherman, and Pope—and the most significant battles, all presented in an entertaining and educational manner.
