Bonanza Hardcover with 752 pages. E.A. Pollard was editor of the Richmond Examiner during the War. This is a facsimile of the long out of print 1866 edition with twenty-four portraits of Confererate leaders. "This is General Lee's army on its last leg: Jaded horses and mules refused to pull; demoralized and badly scared drivers, with straining eyes and perspiring bodies plied their whips vigorously to no effect; difficult places in the road were choked with blazing wagons, fired to save their contents from the enemy...Hundreds threw away their arms; the emoralization appeared at last to involve the officers; they did noting to prevent straffling; and many of them seemed to shut their eyes on the hourly reduction of their commands, and rode in advance of their brigades in dogged indifference. The Lost Cause is a facinating, brilliantly written book, long overdue on the shelves of today's buffs, scholars and readers of North and South.
