Horry-Georgetown Technical College (HGTC) proudly announces that Dr. Michael Roberts, a distinguished professor of English at the College, has released his latest book, Brilliance on the Battlefield: The Legacies of Napoleon, Stonewall, and Patton. Within just 24 hours of its release on Amazon, the book debuted at #1, marking an extraordinary achievement for Dr. Roberts, an acclaimed author and historian. The book is also available this week at Barnes & Noble.

This compelling work is Dr. Roberts’ tenth book and his third non-fiction publication. Brilliance on the Battlefield explores the lasting impact of three of history’s most formidable military leaders—Napoleon Bonaparte, Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson, and George S. Patton. Despite coming from different time periods and utilizing varied tactics, resources, and technologies, these legendary figures are still studied at war colleges worldwide. Their strategic genius continues to influence modern warfare, making their legacies undeniable.

In a show of support for America’s veterans, Dr. Roberts has committed all author royalties from the book to be donated to Disabled American Veterans (DAV), reinforcing his dedication to those who have served.

“We are incredibly proud of Dr. Roberts’ achievement and his contribution to military history and scholarship,” said Dr. Marilyn “Murph” Fore, HGTC President. “His work not only educates and inspires but also gives back to those who have sacrificed for our country.”
