He Hath Loosed the Fateful Lightning: The Battle of Ox Hill (Chantilly), September 1, 1862 by Taylor, Paul. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781572493292.

Spectacular displays of lightning, thunder crashing so loud that it masked the roar of the cannon, a torrential downpour with gale-force winds; these were the hallmarks of the fateful September 1, 1862, Battle of Ox Hill. Only two days after the Confederate victory at Second Manassas, Stonewall Jackson’s vaunted "foot cavalry" would attempt to flank the retreating Union army and place Washington in their sights. An unplanned collision by the two armies near the Virginia plantation called "Chantilly" would prove to be a bloody and costly postscript to the Northern Virginia Campaign of 1862.
