Our Storied Civil War
A remarkable glimpse into the lives that shaped a nation. Acclaimed historian and author Richard Wheeler revisits the American Civil War in his final book. He guides us through the conflict from 1861 to 1865 using scores of rare anecdotes, personal accounts, and amusing observations from the people who bore witness. Our Storied Civil War brings to life the struggle that reunited America, just in time for its 150th anniversary.
Gettysburg 1863

Witness to Gettysburg
From the events that led to the clash at Gettysburg in July 1863 to the retreat of Robert E. Lee's defeated Confederates, Richard Wheeler uses the words of participants—both Northern and Southern—to bring one of the Civil War's bloodiest, most pivotal battles to life. Wheeler blends these compelling personal accounts into a startlingly vivid tapestry of war and a dramatic narrative that entertains as well as informs. This is eyewitness history at its best.

Chuckles in Rhyme

He considers Chuckles in Rhyme to be his paramount effort as a versifier.
