Charge of the First Brigade, Commanded by Col. M.B. Walker: A Moment of Courage and Determination during the Battle of Stone River This evocative print captures the intense moment of the Charge of the First Brigade, led by Colonel Mars Neal Bonham Walker, during the pivotal Battle of Stone River, also known as the Battle of Murfreesboro, which took place between December 31, 1862, and January 2, 1863. The battle was a significant turning point in the American Civil War, as the Confederate Army, under the command of General Braxton Bragg, was forced to withdraw from the area, marking the first major Union victory in the theater. The image portrays the bravery and determination of Col. Walker's brigade as they charge forward into the enemy lines, with the setting sun casting a golden glow over the battlefield. The soldiers, dressed in their blue Union uniforms, are focused and resolute, their weapons at the ready, as they advance towards the Confederate lines. The charge was a critical moment in the battle, as it helped to turn the tide in favor of the Union forces. Col. Walker, a native of North Carolina, had joined the Union Army in 1861 and quickly rose through the ranks, earning a reputation as a skilled and courageous commander. His leadership during the Battle of Stone River was instrumental in the Union victory, and he was later brevetted to the rank of brigadier general for his actions during the battle. This powerful print offers a glimpse into the raw emotion and intensity of the Civil War battlefield, as soldiers from both sides fought for their cause with unwavering commitment and courage. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal moment in American history.
