Jubal Anderson Early (1816-1894) ranked among the most important
generals who fought with Robert E. Lee's Confederate Army of
Northern Virginia. A brigade and corps commander, he played
principal roles at the battles of First Manassas, Chancellorsville,
Gettysburg, and most of the other engagements in the Eastern
Theater during the first three years of the Civil War. In 1864
Early commanded an army in the Shenandoah Valley, winning several
victories and menacing Washington before suffering ignominious
defeat in a series of battles against Phillip H. Sheridan's Union
forces.
Originally released in 1866, Early's is the first personal
account published by a major Civil War figure on either side. A
creator of the Lost Cause myth that exalted Lee and his Virginia
army above those of other states, Early anticipated arguments that
later Lost Cause writers would make regarding Lee's and Grant's
generalships, the reasons for the Confederate defeat, and the
conduct of Union forces in Southern states. Early's memoir helped
shape the ways in which white southerners wrote about and
understood the Confederacy. In a new introduction to this edition,
Gary W. Gallagher explicates Early's military career and examines
the general's postwar career as a Confederate apologist.
