Students of the Civil War need no introduction to Jubal Anderson Early, the West Point Class of 1837 graduate who joined the Confederate Army and became one of Gen. Robert E. Lee's most tenacious commanders. His 1867 "A Memoir of the Last Year of the War for Independence in the Confederate States of America" reveals that his feelings about the United States and his decision to join the South had not changed.
"Life on the Civil War Research Trail" is hosted by Ronald S. Coddington, Editor and Publisher of Military Images magazine. Learn more about our mission to showcase, interpret and preserve Civil War portrait photography at militaryimagesmagazine.com and shopmilitaryimages.com.
