Hardback. Condition: New. One of the Confederacy's most loyal adherents and articulate advocates was Lieutenant Grant James Longstreet's aide-de-camp, Thomas Jewett Goree. Present at Longstreet's headquarters and party to the counsels of Robert E. Lee and his lieutenants, Goree wrote incisively on matters of strategy and politic…s and drew revealing portraits of Longstreet, Jefferson Davis, P.G.T. Beauregard, John Bell Hood, J.E.B. Stuart, and others of Lee's inner circle. His letters are some of the richest and most perceptive from the Civil War period.Thomas Cutrer has collected all of Goree's wartime correspondence to his family, as well as his travel diary from June-August 1865. With its wide scope and rich detail, Longstreet's Aide represents an invaluable addition to the Civil War letter collections published in recent years. While Goree's letters will fascinate Civil War buffs, they also provide a unique opportunity for scholars of social and military history to witness from inside the workings of both an extended Southern family and the forces of the Confederacy.

Pamphlet. Condition: Good. First Edition. Disbound pamphlet. Side stitched. 44 pages. The Address of Thomas J. Goree, Superintendent of Penitentiaries, Before the Penitentiary Committees of the Senate and House of Representatives, Eighteenth Legislature, in Joint Session, February 14, 1883. Also contains the speeches of seven ot…her Texas committee members. The speeches contain information regarding prison costs and money earned from convict labor. Stain to lower right corner of back page bleeding through four leaves. Text not affected.After the Civil War, slavery persisted in the form of convict leasing, a system in which Southern states leased prisoners to private railways, mines, and large plantations. While states profited, prisoners earned no pay and faced inhumane, dangerous, and often deadly work conditions. Thousands of Black people were forced into what authors have termed "slavery by another name" until the 1930s.The principal question at stake was whether the state should resume control of her penitentiaries from the previous lessee, Cunningham and Ellis, and hire out the prisoners directly to private individuals, and reserve for the state treasury the profits. The sentiment for resumption grew until, in the spring of 1883, the legislature refused to renew the lease and the state prison system reverted to state control.Thomas J. Goree was one of the most significant figures in the development of Texas prisons. Goree proved to be a committed and dedicated public servant, reaching far outside the boundaries of Texas to broaden his knowledge of penology and criminology. He was the first Texas prison official to join the National Prison Association.
