What They're Saying

Critics Review

“The first of four volumes covers the Medal of Honor recipients of the American Civil War. Each of the 1,525 men and one woman receives a short mini-bio with date of birth, citation with event which earned them the award, death date, and location of the grave (if available). For his prodigious compilation, ties go to the author. Enjoyed it.”– “Historical Miniatures Gaming Society”

About The Author

Kevin Brazier

Kevin Brazier has long been intrigued by bravery awards and their recipients. His first book on the Victoria Cross was published in 2010. He has since completed works on the George Cross, the Blue Max (Pour le Mérite) and most recently the Knight’s Cross, in each case listing all the recipients and their burial locations. He has given talks on his work at the National Army Museum, and for the Metropolitan and Hertfordshire Police and the Royal British Legion. For this latest publication, a four-volume set on the Medal of Honor, he has travelled throughout the USA to photograph many of the recipients’ final resting places. He lives in London.
