Front cover reads Memoirs of a Westpointer in St. Augustine 1824-1826. Alfred Beckley (May 26, 1802 May 26, 1888) was a public official who founded Beckley, West Virginia, and a brigadier general in the Virginia militia during the American Civil War. He named the city of Beckley in honor of his father, John James Beckley,[a][b] who was the first librarian of the United States Congress. Beckley was appointed to the United States Military Academy at West Point, nominated for West Point by William Henry Harrison and President James Monroe; he entered on September 25, 1819, and graduated on July 1, 1823, ninth in a graduating class of 35. This class started with 86 cadets in 1819. He was in the army for 13 years, serving the entire time as an artillery officer in Pennsylvania, Florida, Virginia, and New York. In 18341835, after legal disputes, Beckley received the title to 56,679 acres his father had owned in western Virginia. In order to manage his inherited estates, Beckley resigned his officer's commission on October 24, 1836. He then settled in Fayette County (now Raleigh County), West Virginia, which was then part of Virginia, finding it a "perfect wilderness". His home, named Wildwood, was built in 18351836, expanded in 1874, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. Beckley returned to military service as a brigadier general in the Virginia Militia from 1849 to 1861; serving out of loyalty to his state even though he strongly opposed its secession from the Union. By summer 1861, Beckley was in charge of the 12th Brigade of Virginia militia against Union troops at Cotton Hill, West Virginia, in the Kanawha Valley. This region was largely pro-Union and his militia was not highly motivated, so Wise condemned Beckley's unit in August 1861. Thus, it only served until October 1861, contributing little to the Confederate cause. He officially resigned his commission on February 8, 1862. Returning to Union-occupied Beckley, he surrendered to the Union officer in charge, Rutherford B. Hayes, on March 1617, 1862. He was then arrested by the Union army on April 3, 1862, and sent first to the Atheneum prison camp near Wheeling, West Virginia, and then to Camp Chase, near Columbus, Ohio, as a prisoner of war. He claimed that he was really pro-Union, but had simply been loyal to Virginia, and had severed all ties with the Confederacy. He was released on June 18, 1862, and arrived back in Raleigh County on June 26, 1862. Cecil DeGrotte Eby Jr. was a retired professor of English, He was born in Charles Town, West Virginia. Eby earned a Bachelor of Arts from Shepherd College in 1950, a Master of Arts from Northwestern University in 1951, and a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1958. He also earned an honorary A.B. from Western Maryland College in 1988. Eby served in the 16th fleet of the U.S. Navy from 1945-46. He then entered graduate school to prepare himself for an academic career. Eby was an assistant professor of English at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia (1957-60). He then joined the faculty of Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Virginia, where he remained until 1965. Eby spent the remainder of his academic career at the University of Michigan (1965-95), where he retired as professor of English. During his career, Eby wrote 9 critically acclaimed books. Subjects range from the U.S. Civil War ("The Old South Illustrated," 1959, University of North Carolina Press; "Porte Crayon: The Life of David H. Strother," 1973, University of North Carolina Press; and "A Virginia Yankee in the Civil War," 1961, University of North Carolina Press), to the Spanish Civil War ("The Siege of the Alcazar," 1965, Random House; "Between the Bullet and the Lie," 1969, Holt, Rinehart & Winston; and "Comrades and Commissars: The Lincoln Battalion in Spain," 2006, Penn State Press); to the 1832 conflict between the United States and Native Americans ("That Disgraceful Affair: The Black Hawk War," 1973, Duke University Press), to World War II ("Hungary at War: Civilians and Soldiers in World War II," 2003, Penn State Press), and how popular literature paved the way for World War I ("The Road to Armageddon: The Martial Spirit in English Popular literature 1870-1914," 1988, Duke University Press).
