Gordon And Longstreet At Get¬
tysburg
By Gus Bernd, Historical Re-
search Assistant Georgia
partment of State.
Early in July, a united coun-
try once more passes an anni-
versary of the Battle of Gettys-
burg, fought between the gallant
men of the Blue and the Gray-
It is appropriate that attention
be given to the actions of two
great Georgians who fought on
that decisive occasion. General
John B. Gordon, referred to by
Lucian Lamar Knight as the
gallant Sir Lancelot T , . of , the „
lederate knights," and Lt. Gen-
oral James Longstreet, known
familiarly as “Lee’s *Oid War-
horse,” played conspicuous roles
.n the drama of Gettysburg.
Gordon has been credited by
some as having been halted by
an order from winning this
Battle. Longstreet has been
charged by mriny with iosing
the Battle through failure to
carry out orders. Careful ex¬
amination of records and mater¬
ial concerning Gettysburg brings
the impression that neither of
these viewpoints is necessarily
correct.
Gordon, commanding a leading
brigade of Ewell’s corps, reached
the scene on the first day of
battle, July 1, 1863. Fate had
suddenly forced a change in
Lee’s original plan not to offer
battie at Gettysburg. It had be¬
come unavoidable. As the treops
in front of Gordon on the Union
right flank were being driven
back in full flight, Gordon was
halted by Ewell. The Georgian
says in his memoirs that he
halted reluctantly after three or
four orders to do so. Gordon,
who thought that possession of
the heights was vital to victory
left posterity the conviction that
had Stonewall Jackson been
there 1 , those heights would have
been in Confederate hands by
nightfall of that fateful first day,
that Lee’s fallen right arm would
have seen the necessity for ag¬
gressive tactics and would have
acted rapidly and informed Lee
later. Perhaps ^ there was iusti-
flcatIon for cautiQn
taken. One logical statement
concerning Lee’s predicament on
the occasion is that “The situ-
ation was one in which General
Lee found himself in the moun¬
tains of Pennsylvania with the
eyes of his army put out.” Jeb
Stuart had been left on the other
side of the mountains. In the
absence of the calvary, Lee, was
unable to accurately measure
the situation. Still an aggressive
Jackson might have made a
great difference. That eminent
authority on Southern military
hi:story, Douglas Southall Free¬
man, states in “Lee’s Lieuten¬
ants" that “The price of victory
at Chancellors (where -Stonewall
Jackson fell) was defeat at Get¬
tysburg.”
The fiercest controversy grow¬
ing out of Gettysburg relates to
the maneuvers of General Long¬
street, who commanded the
First Corps of the Army of
Northern Virginia and was en¬
trusted with the great assaults
of the second and third days
of fighting. After Longstreet
became a Republican, great ef-
lorts were made by many of
his contemporaries to prove that
he lost Gettysburg through in-
•ubordination. General
in defending Lee, joined in this
criticism. A careful review of
reliable sources, including the
works of Freeman, Robert Selph
Henry, Knight and others, brings
the impression that many factors
lost Gettysberg; that Longstreet
certainly was not at his best!
there, nor was Lee; that defi-
nitely Longstreet disagreed with :
l ee’s plans at Gettysburg. There
were arguments exchanged
Longstreet was undoubtedly slow
in
writings or Longstreet on the
subjeet contain some bitterness
toward Lee and are also
contradictory in parts.
known that despite new
mation from scouts.
refused to revise Lee’s orders to
make the attack on the second
day up the Emmitsburg Road,
It seems obvious now that a
flanking attack around the Fed-
oral left to take the Round tops
would have been logical move-
