GENTLE TIGER is the story of one of the most remarkable nineteenth century figures in American History, Chatham Roberdeau Wheat. Lawyer, soldier of fortune, revolutionary, patriot. Wheat is a well-known Confederate hero, but he also fought with William Walker in South America and with Garibadli in Italy. During the Battle of Bull Run he survived a major wound fighting with his Louisiana Tigers beside Stonewall Jackson's Virginians. Wheat is featured in the definitive book on the Confederacy, "Lee's Lieutenants". Killed at Gaines Mill. A relative of General Daniel Roberdeau, who was in the Continental Congress and a signer of the Articles of Confederation during the American Revolution.
