In autumn 1855, slaves and free black men, women, and children first made their way to the Lexington Presbyterian Church to attend Sunday school. Thomas J. Stonewall Jackson, a professor at the Virginia Military Institute, stood as the superintendent of this school. Although it was illegal under Virginia law to teach blacks to read and write, Jackson believed all men, regardless of race, should have the opportunity to receive an education.To these students, Professor Jackson was a leader and mentor who taught them more than just reading and writing. He instilled in them the word of God. Even after he left to join the Civil War, he prayed for his students and sent them money for Bibles and hymnals. Through Jackson's leadership, many of his Sunday-school students went on to become community leaders, ministers, and educators.This lesser-known tale of the Confederate leader shows young readers another side of the man known in battle as Stonewall.Rickey E. Pittman is a Civil War reenactor, public speaker on issues and topics related to the War Between the States, musician who travels and performs original and Civil War-period music, and storyteller at festivals throughout the South. His goal is to provide reading audiences with an accurate book written from a Southern perspective among the politically driven and often historically inaccurate materials currently available on the Civil War. Pittman, a resident of Monroe, Louisiana, is the author of three additional picture books and a collection of short stories with Pelican: Jim Limber Davis: A Black Orphan in the Confederate White House, Confederate Alphabet, Scottish Alphabet, and Stories of the Confederate South. …
