Red Hawk: A Civil War Journal by Kenneth Postalwait is the paperback edition of the author's imaginative Civil War narrative cycle, blending diary-style storytelling with historically informed scenes of Virginia's wartime landscape. Published by Red Hawk Journal (c.2012), this edition features Daniel Paul Murphy's pen and ink illustrations throughout including renderings of battlefield sites, antebellum homes, and landmarks such as Henry House and Postlewait's Tavern accompanied by period-style banner title artwork. This copy is personally inscribed by Postalwait on the half-title: 'To Art Heath' Thank you for preserving Virginia history- Stafford Co. Historical Society - Keith.' The pictorial softcover shows moderate rubbing and surface scratching to the laminate, small corner wear, and light edge scuffing consistent with gentle handling. Binding sound; text pages clean and unmarked, with only faint handling wear. A well-preserved, fully readable, author-signed example of a locally significant, small press Civil War reinterpretation. The volume continues Postalwait's multi-book sequence, combining regional memory, Confederate voice reconstruction, and hybrid historical-literary narration and offers a compelling artifact for collectors of contemporary Civil War literature, Virginia local history, and author-inscribed editions.…
