Stephen a. Swails: Black Freedom Fighter in the Civil War and Reconstruction - Southern Biography Series
Gordon C. Rhea
Stephen Atkins Swails is a forgotten American hero. A free Black in the North before the Civil War began, Swails exhibited such exemplary service in the 54th Massachusetts Infantry that he became the first African American commissioned as a combat officer in the United States military. Gordon Rhea's biography restores Swails's remarkable legacy.
