A writer who supported 'reasons for loss' attacked the war history of Lang Street for years after his death. Modern writers go back to Long Street's failure and adaptation to accept Republicans and the liberation of blacks. These attacks officially began on January 19, 1872, an anniversary of the birth of Lee, two years after the death of Lee. In a speech at the University of Washington, Jubal Early mourned Lee's failure at Gettysburg, erroneously condemned Longstreet as being attacked late the following day, and was in charge of the third day of failure. In the second year, Lee's Artillery Minister, William N. Pendleton, claimed in the same place that Long Street did not violate clear orders at the sunrise on 2 July. Both charges were produced; however, Long Street did not openly challenge them until 1875. As the myth of loss is now occupied, the delay hurt his reputation

Longstreet became the major scapegoat for the league's failure in the early days of Jubal, the main advertiser of the school of loss. Because Li is not always responsible according to the principle of "reason of loss", Langstreet should be responsible for Gettysburg's mistake. The fight between Lee who sent him and the rebel army in battle became a kiss of the Jewish federal myth.

He also criticized the lack of attention of coalition soldiers during the war. He was asserted to imply the myth of the lost cause and suggested that the South insulted the film more "faithfully to Christians". Woodworth's conclusion is that the movie presented 'distorted view of civil war' through 'judicial negligence.
