I apologize if this has been discussed elsewhere. Gallagher in "Lee and His Generals in War and Memory" shows how starting shortly after the war, Longstreet became a pariah among his former Confederate brothers-in-arms and military reputation suffered. Lee devotee Douglas Southall Freeman was not a big Longstreet fan and you don't see much pro-Longstreet popular history for the first half of the 20th century. Now, obviously Longstreet's reputation has been redeemed among most of the public (excluding some die-hards). My question: what turned the tide in Longstreet's favor? Was it Shelby Foote's favorable treatment in his trilogy in the early 60s, followed by Foote's influence on the Ken Burns series? Shaara is obviously another major pro-Longstreet factor, but I don't think KA really took off until after Ken Burns (unless I'm wrong). Am I missing something here?
