SORRY, both the books you cite are NOT PRIMARY SOURCES.

But both make heavy use of documentation from the Official Records of the War of Southern Rebellion, which is THE PRIMARY SOURCE. So no, I don't care to try again.

And considering how wrong your primary sources seem to be on issues such as Lee's slave ownership, 1861 census, free black population of the confederacy, and on and on, I don't think I need to.

sorry, but NOBODY here is convinced by your spreading of ANTI-southern, REVISIONIST propaganda, out of the most extreme, lunatic fringe of northeastern/LEFTIST academia.
