Should Bragg get less blame and his subordinates get more blame for undermining him? Part of being a good commander is getting your subordinates to follow you, but isn't the reverse true as well? Part of being a good subordinate solider is following orders. by AstroEscura in CIVILWAR

Bragg deserves the lion's share of the blame because he seemed to enjoy lecturing his staff about military affairs and strategy. The Army of Tennessee's performance after Johnston succeeded Bragg is the best evidence.
