He served in the Eastern Theater of the war for the entire conflict, as a division commander under Stonewall Jackson and Richard Stoddert Ewell, and in later actions commanded a corps. The articles written by him for the Southern Historical Society in the 1870s established the Lost Cause point of view as a long-lasting literary and cultural phenomenon, but it would turn out not to be a lost cause after all. The lost cause became a new cause and that cause was Civil War II and it was fought without firing a shot on a battle field. The South won it hands down thanks to the K.G.C. and their offspring in the O.A.K. (Order of American Knights). It was not fought over states rights or slavery, it was fought over control of the U.S. Government and it's judicial system as well as the control of it's purse strings.
