@mofederal ,
Got me to thinking when he said General Jefferson C. Davis was not popular with his troops.
If we made a list of generals on both sides from most popular to least popular what would that list look like? Of course sources would be great i.e. diaries and journalistic reports. Other sources would be good.
Why would General X be more popular then General Y?
Maybe better care of his men' needs i.e. food ,shelter and sanitation?
Less likely to get them killed storming fortifications?
What say ye All?
