Lee’s General Order No. 73 was written June 27, 1863, governing the conduct expected of Confederate soldiers while in Maryland and Pennsylvania during what came to be known as the Gettysburg Campaign. Lee had seen war before and was mindful of the tendencies of armies when unleashed in the land of their enemy. General Order No. 73 was written to prevent such outrages. Aft er fi rst praising the overall conduct of his soldiers, Lee then acknowledged that there “have however been instances of forgetfulness on the part of some.” So he cautioned against “barbarous outrages” and “wanton destruction of private property that have marked the course of the enemy in our own country.”1 While it is generally acknowledged that Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia was indeed quite mindful of the rules of war during this campaign, naturally there were lapses. One of these resulted in the arrest of nine offi cers and created a spectacle enjoyed by much of the army. During the retreat from Pennsylvania, as the 3rd South Carolina Volunteer Infantry was camped at Chester Gap in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia just south of Winchester, the soldiers were sleeping out in the open. A light rain had begun, so some of the men decided to get rails from a “shambling, tumbledown rail fence” near camp to build crude shelters.2 Others decided to also build a fi re from some of the rails for cooking and to fi ght off the night’s chill.

As others have documented, aft er Lee assumed command in 1862, it took some time for both Lt. Gen. James Longstreet and Lt. Gen. Th omas “Stonewall” Jackson to become accustomed to Lee’s style of broad guidance for action.1 With Jackson having fallen at Chancellorsville in May 1863, Lee faced the urgent challenge of fi nding a new corps commander— a decision that involved not only identifying whom to promote but also sensing how that person would learn and develop under Lee’s guidance. Th is article examines why Hill was chosen for this command and why his performance at Gettysburg may not have lived up to his formidable reputation. Hill was very much out of touch during this decisive battle; his presence— felt so profoundly in previous battles— was lacking in Pennsylvania. A careful manager as a division commander, he allowed his subordinates free rein and so little supervision that Lee himself had to discuss operations with the Th ird Corps division commanders. Finally, Hill’s development and progress as a corps commander, not only from his fi rst action at Gettysburg but also through the rest of the war, was spotty and lacking in vision. Perhaps there is more to the common story that Hill was simply “sick” during those opening days of July. Th is article examines Hill’s maladies and assesses their impact on his ability to command. In fact, Hill suff ered from a longterm series of illnesses that heavily infl uenced his physical and mental abilities to command.

Th is is the true value of Jamieson’s work; Spring 1865’s broad scope allows the reader to see the connections between the individual theaters of action. One of the great benefi ts of Jamieson’s approach is the way he places the Carolinas Campaign on equal footing with the Petersburg and Appomattox Campaigns. Spring 1865 underscores the importance of the actions in South Carolina and North Carolina by covering these developments fi rst. Th e quick movement and desperate actions in this campaign off er a counterpoint to the stalemate at Petersburg. Jamieson also skillfully covers the tense and complicated negotiations between Sherman and Johnston at Bennett Place, a set of multiple meetings with varied participants held over the course of ten days. Jamieson’s ability to weave together the campaigns and show their connectivity tempts one to think that perhaps an even wider view— to include the TransMississippi region— would make this book’s message more eff ective. To be fair, Jamieson mentions the campaigns in the West in his fi nal chapter, “Scattered Embers,” but these portions of Jamieson’s book are cursory compared to the depth of his analysis of the Carolinas and Virginia. Overall, Jamieson should be applauded for his work in synthesizing not just the most recent scholarship but also these important campaigns, which benefi t equally by being viewed together.
