About

First published in 1962, this is a wonderful biography of General Nelson A. Miles (1839-1925), one of America's most celebrated generals. Author Virginia W. Johnson covers General Miles' career; from his service in the Civil War and his incredible success in the Indian Wars-including the capture of Geronimo and Chief Joseph of the Nez Perces-to serving as the Commanding General of the Army during the Spanish-American War.

The Unregimented General is the portrait of a great frontier general, as distinguished as he was controversial.

Richly illustrated throughout with photographs and maps by the author's husband, Brig.-Gen. Walter M. Johnson.
