P.G.T.Beauregard - Napoleon in Grey by T.H.Williams

Recently I have read this only bio of general Beauregard. If anyone is interested in history of first rate-second class Confederate general, it is the book he/she should read it !

After this book I am convinced he was the second C.S. best general capable of commanding an army.

Yep, ol' Gus was a good general. Poor politician.
