Soldier of the South: General Pickett's War Letters to His Wife is a collection of personal letters written by Confederate General George E. Pickett during the American Civil War. The letters were addressed to his wife, LaSalle Corbell Pickett, and offer a unique glimpse into the thoughts and experiences of a prominent military leader during one of the most tumultuous periods in American history. The book is edited by Charles P. Roland, a leading Civil War historian, and includes a detailed introduction that provides historical context for Pickett's letters. The letters themselves cover a wide range of topics, from Pickett's early experiences as a soldier to his thoughts on the major battles he fought in, including Gettysburg and Petersburg. Throughout the book, Pickett's love for his wife is evident, as he frequently expresses his longing to be with her and his concern for her safety. He also offers insights into his relationships with other Confederate leaders, including Robert E. Lee and James Longstreet. Soldier of the South is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Civil War, and provides a unique perspective on the conflict from one of its most important figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
