Edward A. Pollard was one of the principle editors of the Richmond Examiner during the Civil War. A staunch supporter of the Confederacy, Pollard was at the same time a ferocious critic of President Jefferson Davis. His four volume history of the war years is required reading for anyone wishing to track the southern political point-of-view while the conflict was raging. His histories deserve a place on any serious Confederate shelf, alongside the post-war writings of President Jefferson Davis and Alexander Stephens, and the diaries memoirs of Mary Chesnut, Richard Taylor, James Longstreet et al.     [jp]
