In talking up the accomplishments of the Southern armies one needs to be a bit mindful in my opinion. In TOs outside Virginia, the Confederacy was not particulalry successful or outstanding. Grants River campaigns, the fighting into Kentucky and beyond to Atlanta, does not paint the average reb in too good a lightas compared to the Union. Grants and Shermans campaigns respectively are pretty impressive when you examine them, whilst the souths camapigns around St Louis are very ordinary in my opinion .
In Virginia things were different, but once lee tried to move north into Maryland, he ran into real trouble and did not look so good. Lees campaign in the ozarks before he took command of the Army Of Virginia is also only mediocre in its achievements
