About the author
Edward A. Pollard
65 books7 followersEdward Alfred Pollard (1832–1872) was an American author, journalist, and Confederate sympathizer during the American Civil War who wrote several books on the causes and events of the war, notably The Lost Cause: A New Southern History of the War of the Confederates (1866) and The Lost Cause Regained (1868), wherein Pollard originated the long-standing pseudo-historical ideology of the Lost Cause of the Confederacy.
During the American Civil War, he was one of the principal editors of the pro-Confederate but critical of Jefferson Davis newspaper Richmond Examiner.
In 1864, he sailed for England, but the vessel on which he sailed was captured as a blockade runner, and he was confined in Boston Harbor from 29 May until 12 August, when he was paroled.
NB Do not confuse with the Rev. Edward Bagby Pollard (1864-1927)
