About this product

Product Information

Beneath the layers of invective and vilification remains a general whose military record has been badly maligned. Piston explains how how James Longstreet became, in the years after Appomattox, the scapegoat for the South's defeat, a Judas for the new religion of the Lost Cause.

Reviews
"A welcome account of the military career of General James P. Longstreet, one of the Civil War's most competent corps commanders, but also one of its most vilified. After some brief biographical data, the text plunges headlong into the events of the great conflict, which saw Longstreet participating in many of its most important battles (Manassas, Antietam, Chickamauga, etc.). Piston's major focus, however, is Gettysburg, at which Longstreet has historically been accused of malfeasance in not complying efficiently with the orders of Confederate General Robert E. Lee . . . Piston effectively sets the record straight on Longstreet's behalf; the facts are that Lee blew it at Gettysburg (though there will always be those who disagree). An excellent piece of American military biography."--Booklist
