About a week ago I posted a thread about horse racing in the Civil War which attached this article. I quoted some parts from the article and asked if anyone had any additional information regarding Longstreet, especially in regards to the article's statement:
"Confederate General James Longstreet once bragged about being unbeaten in all types of races, including jumping and other varied competitions, such as the steeplechase".
I didn't get any additional information so I now bring it to the attention of you Longstreet experts (I understand some of you are also members of the Longstreet Society).
What is known about Longstreet and horse racing and was he "unbeaten in all types of races"?
