Dan Sickles: Hero Of Gettysburg And Yankee King Of Spain is a biography of Daniel Edgar Sickles, a controversial figure in American history. Sickles was a politician, soldier, and diplomat who rose to prominence during the Civil War. He is perhaps best known for his actions at the Battle of Gettysburg, where he disobeyed orders and moved his troops to a different position, which ultimately helped secure a Union victory.The book explores Sickles' life and career, from his early days as a lawyer and politician in New York to his service in the Civil War and his later years as a diplomat in Europe. It delves into his personal life, including his scandalous affair with a woman named Teresa Bagioli, whom he later married. The book also examines Sickles' legacy and the controversies that surrounded him throughout his life, including his role in the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson.Written by author Pinchon Edgcumb, Dan Sickles: Hero Of Gettysburg And Yankee King Of Spain is a well-researched and engaging biography that sheds light on one of the most intriguing figures of the Civil War era. It offers a nuanced portrait of Sickles, highlighting both his strengths and weaknesses, and provides insight into the complex political and social landscape of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
