Reviews

Cory M. Pfarr provides the most detailed analysis to date of James Longstreet's actions at Gettysburg, the motivations of his postwar critics, and the manner in which bias against Longstreet has influenced histories of the battle down to the present day. This is a welcome addition to the historiography of the most studied military engagement in American history."" - William Garrett Piston, author of Lee's Tarnished Lieutenant; James Longstreet and his Place in Southern History

""About once each decade an honest work concerning James Longstreet is published. Cory Pfarr has this decade covered."" - Richard Pilcher, past president, the Longstreet Society.
