Description
1867 Robert E Lee & Generals Civil War Stonewall Jackson CSA Snow BEST ed



A fascinating, Southern-biased view of General Robert E. Lee, his field generals, and the American Civil War by William Snow.



Eicher’s description of this book is paramount:

“This book is a useful as an expression of the growing sentiment for Lee immediately after the war. It essentially constitutes a defense of Southern generalship during the war, examining not only Lee but a wide spectrum of Confederate field commanders: Stonewall Jackson, Pierre Beauregard, Joe Johnston, Samuel Cooper, James Longstreet, Braxton Bragg, Richard S. Ewell, Jeb Stuart, A.P. Hill, John Bell Hood, Albert Sidney Johnston, Leonidas Polk, Sterling Price, Edmund Kirby Smith, John Hunt Morgan, William J. Hardee, and Wade Hampton III.



“Biographical sketches of the generals in question are prese4nted along with extensive analysis of the campaigns operated by each officer. Snow employs some official documents, dispatches. Snow concludes that every Southern general was a great hero.”



Sabin and Eicher both note that this edition is superior to the 1865 first edition of a different title.
