With Lee in Virginia, A Story of the American Civil War (1890) is a book by British author G.A.

Henty's character, Vincent Wingfield, fights for the Confederate States of America, even though he is against slavery.

A few wandered away, but their places were easily filled; for the majority of the freed slaves very soon discovered that their lot was a far harder one than it had been before, and that freedom so suddenly given was a curse rather than a blessing to them.

[1] Nathaniel Cadle claims With Lee in Virginia's plot works to "romanticize and oversimplify the relationship between white Confederate slave owners and their black chattel.

The politics of sectional conflict aren't oversimplified, but the bias is one Southern Partisan readers are likely to applaud".
