		Cleburne was promoted to brigadier general in March 1862, and his brigade participated in the Battle of Shiloh in April and the 1862 Kentucky Campaign that summer.

	The Royal Regiment of Wales
		Patrick Ronayne Cleburne was born on 16 March 1828, and was the second son of Doctor Joseph and Mary Anne Cleburne of Bride's Park Cottage, County Cork, Ireland.
		Patrick was not alone in being forced to act against his own countrymen, as almost 50% of the Regiment were Irishmen, who had joined the army merely to escape starvation.
		In 1850 Patrick settled in the small frontier town of Helena, in the State of Arkansas, a fast-growing, albeit rumbustious settlement where he was soon recognised as a gentleman and was rapidly accepted into the best social circles.

	Biographical Sketch of Major-General Patrick Ronayne Cleburne
		On the 21st, while the army was occupying a line encircling the northern front of Atalanta, Cleburne's division was detached to oppose an attempt of a corps of the enemy to turn the Confederate right, and penetrate to Atalanta at an undefended point.
		A captured Federal officer was deprived of his hat and blankets by a needy soldier of Cleburne's command, and Cleburne, failing to detect the offender or to recover the property, sent the officer a hat of his own, and his only pair of blankets.
		Cleburne's remains were buried after the battle of Franklin, and yet rest in the Polk Cemetery, near Columbia, Tennessee, the most beautiful of the many beautiful spots in the valley of the Tennessee.

	The Wild Geese Today -- Patrick Cleburne's Proposal
		Cleburne's notion was revolutionary, explosive, and one of the greatest ironies to emerge from the four-year struggle to vouchsafe the Confederate States of America.
		At the moment Cleburne, a major general, put forth this proposal, the war was in its fourth year, and he was at the zenith of his career after his stunning victory at Ringgold, Georgia, a victory that he himself engineered and commanded.
		In the end, Cleburne's judgment was vindicated, and we are all left to wonder what might have been if, in January 1864, Jeff Davis and the rest of the politicians of the Confederacy had possessed his foresight, as well as his courage to act on it.

	Pat Cleburne Bio
		Major-General Patrick R. Cleburne, one of the most brilliant soldiers of the Confederate States, a native of County Cork Ireland, was born on St. Patrick's Day and became the only product of the Emerald Isle to become a Confederate major general.
		Patrick Cleburne accepted his superiors suggestions to suppress his proposal on enlisting slaves, and accompanied his friend William J. Hardee as best man to Hardees' wedding in Demopolis, Alabama.
		Cleburne had hinted in his letters that he hoped he would return to his command, from this leave, a married man. After four long years of rigorous campaigning, it was obvious to friends and staff that their general was increasingly absorbed with reflection on his future beyond the bloody battlefields of war.

		Patrick Cleburne is my favorite civil war general, and this volume gives a very even-handed discussion of his life, from Ireland to Franklin, Tenn. In particular, it gives considerable space to his growth as a leader.
		While Cleburne is easily one of my favorite generals, I did appreciate Symonds' apparently accurate portrayal of Cleburne being the consummate division commander while perhaps not belonging in the league of corps commanders (see his performance at Jonesboro GA, for example).
		Nevertheless, Cleburne was one of those rare generals with excellent leadership ability and able to hold the high esteem of superior and subordinate alike.

		Patrick Cleborne was tragically killed at the Battle Of Franklin because of the vanity of John Bell Hood and not only did the south lose a fine General who knew his stuff, but a fine and gallant gentleman as well.
		Cleburne's gallantry is described during some of the most bitterly fought battles of the war with panche and style.
		Cleburne's story as a soldier and commander has perhaps been overlooked because, for Southerners, he was not "really one of us" insofar as he was Irish.

		Had Patrick Cleburne fought in the Army of Northern Virginia instead of the Army of Tennessee, we surely would be overwhelmed with biographies of his greatness as a general.
		The main focus of Symonds' work is on Cleburne the general, but he gives enough background of his youth in Ireland and his migration to and adoption of America as his new home to sketch what shaped his character and what motivated him to fight in the Southern cause.
		Cleburne emerges as an immigrant eager to assimilate and make the customs and mores of his new home his own; a man grateful for the opportunities and acceptance he received in Arkansas, and genuinely, if uncritically, committed to fighting for the cause of his adopted home.
