President Davis graduated from West Point and had built a reputation as an able soldier and statesman when the gathering storm in the late 1850s carried him back to Mississippi. In February 1861, a convention of States that had seceded from the Union named him provisional President of the Confederates States. He was inaugurated later that month. Mr. Brian Mitchell often portrays President Davis at Reenactments and is wearing a reproduction of Davis' coat now located at the Museum of the Confederacy in Richmond, VA.
