Drummer Boy Willie McGee, Civil War Hero and Fraud
Thomas Fox
On December 7, 1864, a drummer boy from Newark, New Jersey, William McGee, was credited with leading a Federal force to a sharp and decisive victory over the Confederates. This is the story of a lost war hero, a man-child with the world at his feet, whose fall from grace is accelerated by fame, lies, alcohol, bigamy, and murder.
