Don Troiani’s Black Soldiers in America’s Wars: 1754-1865

John U. Rees

Using a masterful combination of artistry and accuracy, Don Troiani has dedicated his career to transforming our understanding of the military soldier. Don now turns his talents to capturing the under-recognized African-American soldiers as they fought in the French and Indian War, the War of Independence, the War of 1812, and the American Civil War. Don's battle paintings, figure studies, and artifact collection are teamed with historian John Rees's insightful text.

This long-needed work combines Troiani's magnificent art--the dramatic battle paintings and authentically illustrated uniformed soldier studies--with Rees's introductory chapters on the four wars. Using primary sources, Rees gives a true picture of the contributions of the many Black soldiers over the 100-year history.

Together Troiani and Rees provide the most comprehensive, authoritative, and well-researched study of the Black soldier in early America.
