Biographical sketches of the 257 Virginia Military Institute Cadets that fought in the Battle of New Market, Virginia - May 15, 1864. It was a moment unique in American collegiate history - never before or since has a college student body been called into pitched battle and led a victorious charge against the enemy. The price was great: 57 cadets were wounded, ten died. All were changed. All had pursued the same academic course, yet it would be difficult to find more varied careers - many reached the very top of life's ladder. This volume includes a concise description of the Battle of New Market, including pertinent incidents surrounding the campaingn. Originally published in a very limited edition in 1933, this rare volume has been updated
