Walter Taylor was 'first to last the closest' of all staff officers to General Robert E. Lee, and his intimate relationship with his commander gives Taylor's writings signal importance in any study of Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia. Taylor devoted a considerable portion of his postwar years to settling controversies relative to Lee's command. Rarely are his conclusions disputed, because he possessed a memory known to be both cohesive and accurate. He became in effect 'an unofficial court of last resort' in the arguments that abounded in the half-century after Appomattox. A recognized classic, "Four Years with General Lee" first appeared in 1877 and was a collector's item by the turn of the century. For many years a standard authority on Confederate history, it is the source for dozens of incidents that have now become a part of every biography of Lee. This annotated edition, first published in 1962, was prepared by noted Civil War historian James I. Robertson, Jr., who has provided a new introduction for his paperback reissue.
