It is also quite a problem with whom to accomplish missions; indeed, intellectual capabilities of army conscripts are extremely low, and the level of preparedness of young men demonstrates that further studies are hardly to be a success.

 War and Memory: "Gods And Generals" As History by Mackubin T. Owens   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)

Lost Cause authors such as the former Confederate general Jubal Early were instrumental in shaping perceptions of the war, in the north as well as in the south.
In fact, what the southern protagonists in Gods and Generals claim to be a second war of independence was the interruption of the constitutional operation of republican government that substituted the rule of the minority for that of the majority.
