A Life of Duty

Description

Brigadier General George Willcox McIver’s life spanned a time of unparalleled dramatic transformation in American history. A native of Davidson, North Carolina, McIver lived through the Civil War, fought in the Spanish-American War and World War I, and served in posts all across America and Europe over his illustrious forty-year military career. Jonathan Dembo has carefully edited and annotated McIver’s original autobiography, published here for the first time.
