Described as the “Pan Am pilot of his era” and “Teddy’s favorite uncle,” James Dunwoody Bulloch led a life of naval success, international espionage and general was shrouded in mystery — until now. Georgia Southern University alumnus Dr. Gary McKay co-authored the first biography on Bulloch, titled “James D. Bulloch: Secret Agent and Mastermind of the Confederate Navy,” along with Walter E. Wilson, a retired Navy captain and senior U.S. Naval Intelligence officer in Europe. Georgia Southern’s Zach S. Henderson Library and the Statesboro Regional Library presented McKay’s lecture, “The President’s Hero: James D. Bulloch.”
