In this first-ever reprint of the classic work Loyal West Virginia, Lang ably describes events and personalities responsible for West Virginia's formation -- from the initial outcry of opposition to Virginia's 1861 secession ordinance, to organization of a separate provisional government and eventual statehood midway through the conflict. His primary attention, however, focuses on military operations involving West Virginia and its soldiers who remained loyal to the Union, a subject he believed was (and remains) greatly neglected. In addition to his experiences as a combat and staff officer, Lang details successes and failures of military leaders serving in the state or under West Virginia banners on bloody battlefields in Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. Skirmishes and bitter fighting at such places as Philippi, Rich Mountain, Moorefield, Harpers Ferry and Droop Mountain share equally with West Virginians' participation in major battles at 2nd Manassas, Antietam, Vicksburg, Chattanooga, the Shenandoah Valley and Appomattox. Soldiers from the Mountain State baffled "Stonewall" Jackson at Cross Keys, helped repel a Confederate assault at Gettysburg, tangled with Jubal Early at Winchester and Cedar Creek, and smashed through Rebel resistance under George Custer at Five Forks.
