Review # 2 was written on 2012-10-04 00:00:00 Matt Deshais I read this book the year I graduated with my Masters degree. It was not quite the book that Lt. Col. GFR Henderson wrote on General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson as it is a book that was compiled by the family of Gen. R.E. Lee after his death in 1871. Still, interesting - Douglas Southall Freeman wrote the definitive account in the 1930's at about the same time that Sir Winston Churchill would begin to write "A History of the English Speaking Peoples" (which wouldn't be concluded until 1957 due to the Second World War). However, what this book did was begin the process of the many stories of the many service members individual accounts from both the Confederacy and the Union. The individual soldier was only as effective as his leader was able to "lead". Given the economically challenged American South of the time and directly following this war - it is amazing to read and more amazing the Confederacy had remained as solvent for as long as it had. My personal favorite reading of the American War Between the States came from none other than Sir W.S. Churchill in the works as written above.
