When Bell Irvin Wiley's composite portrait of the rank-and-file Confederate soldier was published in 1943, it was enthusiastically received by professional historians and general readers alike. A half century later, the book still is regarded as one of the best available accounts of the ordinary citizens who made up the Confederate army. The Life of Johnny Reb is not about the battles and skirmishes fought by the Confederate foot soldier. Rather, it is an intimate history of the soldier's daily life - the songs he sang, the foods he ate, the hopes and fears he experienced, the reasons he fought. Wiley has examined countless letters, diaries, newspaper accounts, and official records in constructing this frequently poignant, sometimes humorous account of the life of Johnny Reb.

"Using General Robert E. Lee's Maryland Campaign of 1862 as a poignant case study, Williams describes how Confederate soldiers fought and died for a government that could not supply them with shoes or even feed them before battle. The same government that exempted large slave-holders from service and allowed planters to continue to grow cotton when Southern armies desperately needed food, required its soldiers to march on bleeding feet and live off green corn taken from Maryland fields.".
