| Description: |
The legacy of Nathan Bedford Forrest continues to polarize the South as a symbol of the Lost Cause. This book explains how one of the Civil War's most colourful and controversial characters became a legend during the war, and evolved into a mythical figure after the war and into the 21st century through literature, art, cinema, and TV. |
| Synopsis: |
In this new book, Paul Ashdown and Edward Caudill explore the creation of the relentless Forrest myth. Scrutinizing literature, art, cinema, and popular culture over the past 150 years, the authors contend that the legend is a creation of the nation's obsession with the Civil War, and its press. This book will captivate readers with the enigma that was Nathan Bedford Forrest. |
