Come All You Brave Soldiers: Blacks in the Revolutionary War

"Cox has written a fascinating, readable, and moving account of the contributions made by black men in America's struggle for independence from Great Britain.... a captivating read. Simply put, this is a valuable book that brings alive the role played by blacks in the American Revolution."
--The ALAN Review


The Forgotten Heroes: The Story of the Buffalo Soldiers

From the publisher:

"In the late 1800s, thousands of black cavalrymen helped open the West. They protected settlers, carried the mail when no one else could get through, and fought battles against Native Americans led by such great men as Geronimo. They came to be called the Buffalo Soldiers."


Undying Glory: The Story of the Massachusetts 54th Regiment
"In a riveting account that rivals any I have read in either fiction or non-fiction, Cox describes the 54th's assault on Fort Wagner, off the coast of Charleston....Cox makes this 1863 battle and subsequent siege read like today's late-breaking news story."
--Wilson Library Bulletin
