Beauregard employed Alfred Roman, his former aide and inspector general, to write them according to his specifications, closely controlling their contents. Some say that the only reason this massive undertaking was presented as biography was that, as such, Beauregard was able to indulge in self-praise that would have been unseemly in a memoir. Be that as it may, Beauregard and Roman together produced a classic, remarkable not only for its thorough defense of Beauregard's actions, but for its insight into the mind and deeds of one of the Confederacy' greatest commanders.Roman, Alfred is the author of 'Military Operations of General Beauregard: In the War between the States, 1861 to 1865, Vol. 1 - Alfred Roman - Paperback - 1st Da Capo Press ed' with ISBN 9780306805462 and ISBN 0306805464.
