A Confederate Trilogy
No Customer Reviews
A Confederate Trilogy is a combination of three books written by Mary Lynn Williamson, a Virginia schoolteacher: Life of Thomas J. Jackson, by: Williamson, Mary L. (Mary Lynn), 1850-1923. Published: (1918). The Life of J. E. B. Stuart, by: Williamson, Mary L. (Mary Lynn), 1850-1923. Published: (1914) The Life of Gen. Robert E. Lee, by: Williamson, Mary L. (Mary Lynn), 1850-1923. Published: (1895). Mrs. Williamson has stated her motive for writing these biographies of Lee, Jackson, and Stuart: "... pupils may fix in their minds the names and deeds of our great men, thereby laying the foundation of historical knowledge and instilling true patriotism into their youthful souls." She adds, "In looking over the lives of our American heroes, we find not one which presents such a picture of moral grandeur as [these men]. Faithfulness to fact; sincerity of interpretation, vigorous narration, and chaste, vivid style give these biographies a niche in historical literature. One seldom reads prose of more elevated emotion and simplicity. Unapologetically Southern partisan.
