Stealing the General : The Great Locomotive Chase and the First Medal of Honor by Russell S. Bonds (2006, Hardcover)

Americans north and south, both at the time and ever since, have been astounded and fascinated by the Great Locomotive Chase. But until now, there has not been a complete history of the entire episode and the fates of all those involved. Based on eyewitness accounts, as well as correspondence, diaries, military records, newspaper reports, deposition testimony and other primary sources, Stealing the General: The Great Locomotive Chase and the First Medal of Honor by Russell S. Bonds is a blend of meticulous research and compelling narrative that is now considered to be the definitive history of "the boldest adventure of the war."
