"A hard-hitting, authoritative narrative by one of Lee's finest young officers. The artillerist's assessments of the military operations of the Army of Northern Virginia are honest, fair and sound." #1 In Tall Cotton: The 200 Most Important Confederate Books for the Reader, Researcher and Collector by Richard Barksdale Harwell. In 1907, Edward Alexander published his Military Memoirs of a Confederate. Unfortunately, he made so little of his outstanding service as chief of artillery for Longstreet's Corps in the narrative that his memoirs actually assumed the outlines of a history of the Army of Northern Virginia. Nonetheless, Alexander's candid and objective treatment of the campaigns he witnessed make his book one of the best contemporary accounts of the Civil War.
