Don't kid yourself. Chamberlain is not quite what Schiara portrays him to be. He has a large problem with the truth, for instance.

That's why his remembrances of the formal surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia mesh so well with that other purveyor of truth, John B. Gordon.

"Don't kid yourself.Chamberlain is not quite what Schiara portrays him to be. He has a large problem with the truth, for instance." Good advice for both of us, the part about not kidding ourselves. JLC didn't own any slaves at least, nor did he fight to keep them for others.
And please don't try to tell me that the war had nothing to do with slavery. It was almost all about slavery.
