Based on more than 170 letters, diaries, memoirs and other contemporary sources, the author describes what the generals of the American Civil War thought and said about their colleagues and opponents. There are statements on more than 400 Civil War generals, some of which came from other generals, but also from superiors, such as Presidents Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis.
However, the views and assessments of subordinate officers and persons are also represented. An interesting collection of sources that opens up a view of how the high officer corps saw itself and how it was seen by others.
