Originally published by UNC Press in 1989, Fighting for the
Confederacy is one of the richest personal accounts in all of the
vast literature on the Civil War. Alexander was involved in nearly
all of the great battles of the East, from First Manassas through
Appomattox, and his duties brought him into frequent contact with
most of the high command of the Army of Northern Virginia,
including Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and James Longstreet.
No other Civil War veteran of his stature matched Alexander's
ability to discuss operations in penetrating detail-- this is
especially true of his description of Gettysburg. His narrative is
also remarkable for its utterly candid appraisals of leaders on
both sides. |Rescued from an archive and published only eight years
ago, this private memoir by Confederate General Porter Alexander is
now recognized as one of the best books by a participant in the
Civil War.
