Prudent Soldier is a detailed biography of Major General E.R.S. Canby, a prominent figure in the American Civil War and the Reconstruction era. Written by Max L. Heyman Jr., the book chronicles Canby's life from his birth in 1817 to his death in 1873. Heyman provides a thorough account of Canby's military career, including his service in the Mexican-American War, his command of the Department of New Mexico, and his role in the Union's western campaigns during the Civil War. The book also delves into Canby's post-war work as a military governor in Louisiana and Alabama, where he was tasked with overseeing the reconstruction of the South. Heyman draws on a wealth of primary sources to paint a vivid portrait of Canby as a cautious and methodical commander who was respected by his peers and subordinates. Prudent Soldier is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Civil War, Reconstruction, or the life of one of the Union's most accomplished generals.Biography Of Major General E. R. S.
