Sommario/riassunto |
|
By 1863, Major General Daniel E. Sickles was notorious as a disgraced former Congressman who murdered his wife's lover on the streets of Washington. With his political career in ruins, Sickles used his connections with President Lincoln to obtain a prominent command in the Army of the Potomac's Third Corps. |
