Více o knize
Focusing on the multifaceted life of Lewis Ginter, the book explores his roles as a war hero, entrepreneur, and philanthropist in Richmond. Known for his bravery during the Civil War and as the "Fighting Commissary," Ginter later revolutionized the hand-rolled cigarette market and contributed to urban development by creating one of the first streetcar suburbs and building the iconic Jefferson Hotel. Local writer Brian Burns uncovers lesser-known aspects of Ginter's life, bridging the divide between his legendary status and personal experiences.
