P. G. T. Beauregard (4014 words)
Beauregard was in command of the provisional Confederate forces in Charleston Harbor from March, 1861, reorganizing the artillery to be more effective in the event of an attack on Fort Sumter.
Beauregard's first challenge appeared from the Bermuda Hundred on May 5, 1864, when 39,000 Yankees under the command of Benjamin Butler landed with his Army of the James at Bermuda Hundred, intending to head for Richmond, Virginia.
Beauregard advanced to the peninsula and trapped the Army of the James on a small neck of land between the James River and the Appomattox River, building a strong earthworks, the Howlett Line, to keep Butler where he was.
Army of Mississippi (560 words)
Beauregard south to Corinth, Mississippi to handle mostly organizational responsibilities of gathering coastal defense forces that became the "veteran" contingent of the army made up mostly of raw recruits.
When Johnston arrive in late March he combined Beauregard's forces, Braxton Bragg's forces, and his own remaining army under this name, marched the men to a small church near Pittsburg Landing and fought the bloodiest battle ever on American soil at the time.
Unfortunately, Beauregard never told Jefferson Davis he was going to leave Corinth, so the Confederate President took command away from the Creole general as soon as the opportunity presented itself, replacing Beauregard with Braxton Bragg.
