Autorenporträt
Theodore Ayrault Dodge was an American officer, merchant, and military historian who lived from May 28, 1842, to October 26, 1909. As a writer, he was passionate with the American Civil War and the great generals of ancient and European history. He served as a Union officer in the conflict. He was born in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, attended University College London and the University of Heidelberg, and underwent military training in Berlin. He quickly volunteered as a private in the New York volunteer infantry upon his return to the United States in 1861. He became a brevet lieutenant-colonel during the Civil War and lost the lower part of his right leg at the Battle of Gettysburg. In 1866, he received a commission in the regular army after beginning his service at the War Department in 1864. He retired in 1870, with the rank of major, and moved to Boston. He made investments in several businesses that tried to produce hydraulic hoses but failed. In 1884, he established the Boston Woven Hose and Rubber Company, based on a new tubular loom that James E. Gillespie and Robert Cowen had invented. After relocating to Paris, he passed away there. In Arlington, Virginia's Arlington National Cemetery, he was laid to rest.
