John Pelham of Alabama: The Gallant Chief of J. E. B. Stuart's Horse Artillery

John Pelham's life was packed into 24 short years. Born in Alabama, he spent his last years of life fighting in the Confederate Army, mostly in Virginia. His bravery and honor were legendary. He was highly extolled by R. E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and JEB Stuart as well as many others. This West Point man was superior in fighting "horse artillery" and was a horseman par excellence. Lee called him "the gallant Pelham."Rumburg, H. Rondel is the author of 'John Pelham of Alabama: The Gallant Chief of J. E. B.
