Grady McWhiney
Grady McWhiney was an American historian specializing in the American Civil War and Southern history.
He co-authored "Attack and Die" with Perry D. Jamieson, exploring the high casualty rates of Confederate forces during the Civil War.
McWhiney was known for his controversial theories about Southern culture and its influence on military tactics.
He was a founding member of the League of the South, a neo-Confederate organization, but later distanced himself from the group.
McWhiney's work often focused on the cultural and ethnic aspects of Southern history, including the influence of Celtic heritage on Southern society and military strategy.
