Maj. Gen. R. S. Canby
Teniente General R.S. Canby
Maj. Gen. R. S. Canby
Soon after the Civil War began, Canby was named colonel of the Nineteenth Infantry at Fort Defiance, New Mexico Territory. In a series of battles (Valverde on February 21, 1862, and Apache Canyon and Glorieta on March 27 and 28), Canby's troops blunted a Confederate invasion led by Gen. Henry H. Sibley, who turned back into Texas. Canby's actions prevented Confederate expansion from Texas into the greater Southwest. Image Description: Image shows a portrait woodcut drawing of Edward R. S. Canby. The drawing depicts Canby from his chest up facing the camera. He wears a military coat with a set of three buttons far apart that come down his coat. At his shoulders there are two military shoulder boards with what appear stars on them; his dark hair is parted at the side and cut short just above his ears.
