Meet the Author Event: Charlie Knight
May 16, 2021 @ 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Come meet author, Charlie Knight at the Winchester Book Gallery.
Charles R. Knight’s ‘Valley Thunder’ is the first full-length account in more than three decades to examine the combat at New Market on May 15, 1864–the battle that opened the pivotal 1864 Shenandoah Valley Campaign.
Valley Thunder: The Battle of New Market is based upon years of primary research and a firsthand appreciation of the battlefield terrain. Knight’s balanced and objective approach includes a detailed examination of the complex prelude leading up to the day of battle. His entertaining prose introduces a new generation of readers to a wide array of soldiers, civilians, and politicians who found themselves swept up in one of the war’s most gripping engagements.
