Cory Pfarr is back to talk about his follow-up book to his first release, Longstreet at Gettysburg: A Critical Reassessment. In this book, Righting the Longstreet Record at Gettysburg: Six Matters of Controversy and Confusion, "Influential interpretations of his actions are evaluated for historical accuracy, drawing on often overlooked primary source material. Points of contention about Longstreet's July 2, 1863, attack are examined, along with the roots of the Longstreet-Gettysburg Controversy and the merits of Helen Longstreet's early 20th century attempt to address it."
