When Duty Calls: The Extraordinary Life of Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain
Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain stands as one of America's most remarkable yet overlooked leaders. Before becoming a Civil War hero, he was a mild-mannered Bowdoin College professor fluent in nine languages. His transformation culminated in his famous bayonet charge at Gettysburg's Little Round Top-a moment that may have saved the Union. Though forgotten for decades, Chamberlain experienced a cultural resurrection through Ken Burns' documentary "The Civil War" and the film "Gettysburg," which introduced millions to his extraordinary courage. What makes his story so compelling is how he repeatedly answered the call to serve-as soldier, governor, college president, and civic leader-always guided by unwavering principles rather than personal ambition. His life reveals how ordinary individuals can rise to extraordinary challenges when principle and opportunity converge.
