***********************************

 Colonel Pegram forged a record as one of the most prominent artillerists in the Army of Northern Virginia. He participated in every major battle in Virginia and rose from sergeant to full colonel by the end of the war. The author examines in detail Pegram's role in the Seven Days fighting, at Cedar Mountain, Harpers Ferry, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Spotsylvania, Petersburg, and Five Forks. The descriptions of artillery service at various battles are detailed and valuable, providing ample reading for students of the Army of Northern Virginia and its artillery strategy and tactics.
