Lee's Lieutenants, Volume I: Manassas to Malvern Hill

1970 Charles Scribner jumbo trade paperback, Douglas Southall Freeman (Lee's Lieutenants: A Study in Command, Vol. 3). Lee's Lieutenants: A Study in Command is the most colorful and popular of Douglas Southall Freeman's works. A sweeping narrative that presents a multiple biography against the flame-shot background of the American Civil War, it is the story of the great figures of the Army of Northern Virginia who fought under Robert E. Lee. The Confederacy won resounding victories throughout the war, but seldom easily or without tremendous casualties. Death was always on the heels of fame, but the men who commanded -- among them Jackson, Longstreet, and Ewell -- developed as leaders and men.
