    Ambrose Bierce Review - Roy Morris
    ...
    Author: Roy Morris
    ...
    Roy Morris, Jr., is the editor of the journal AMERICA'S CIVIL WAR and the author of SHERIDAN: THE LIFE AND WARS OF GENERAL PHIL SHERIDAN (1992).
    ...
    As a Civil War authority, Morris is well suited to unraveling how the war impacted Ambrose Bierce.
    ...
    Morris is at his analytic best in his description of the war and the part the Bierce played in it as a Union Army soldier.He was a good soldier and by the end of the war had risen to the rank of first lieutenant.Bierce saw action in a number of major battles.On June 23, 1864, he was shot in the head while leading a skirmish line at Kennesaw Mountain.
    ...
    Morris presents his own alternative theory, but it also is no more than conjecture.While Morris could have spent more time discussing Bierce's early life and his marriage to Mary Ellen Day, AMBROSE BIERCE still remains an admirable biography.
