Beschreibung

General Hugh Judson Kilpatrick, known as "Kill-Cavalry" Kilpatrick, was a Union Army officer renowned for his daring and aggressive tactics during the American Civil War. Born in 1836 in New Jersey, Kilpatrick quickly rose through the ranks due to his bravery and leadership abilities. He played a significant role in key battles such as Gettysburg, where he commanded a division of cavalry, and led the ill-fated Kilpatrick-Dahlgren Raid in 1864. Despite his successes, Kilpatrick's reckless behavior and clashes with superiors earned him a controversial reputation. After the war, he pursued a career in politics and diplomacy, serving as the U.S. Minister to Chile and later as a general in the U.S. Army during the Spanish-American War. Kilpatrick's legacy is one of both daring military leadership and controversy. 1860s Steel Engraving - Antique Print. Artist: n/a - Engraved by: n/a .
