Description
Gilbert Moxley Sorrel started as a young soldier in the American civil war, eventually rising to the rank of general. His Recollections of a Confederate Staff Officer describes the campaigns in a candid and personal manner and is a great resource for anyone interested in this time period.
Moxley Sorrel served most of his time under the talented James Longstreet. He does not attempt to provide an overview or objective account, but it is for precisely this reason that Recollections is so valuable. Many books have been written that objectively discuss the war but no other author could write this particular point of view.
