Born in Savannah, Georgia, Sorrel would rise to prominence through his military service, largely due to his sharp organizational abilities and leadership skills. After the war, he penned his memoirs, entitled 'Recollections of a Confederate Staff Officer', which provides an insightful first-hand account of the inner workings of the Confederacy's military apparatus and the personalities involved, including General Robert E. Lee, with whom Sorrel had a close working relationship (Sorrel, 1905). His written work is an invaluable resource for historians and Civil War aficionados, offering a window into the Confederate high command's strategic decision-making processes and the war's operational challenges. Sorrel's literary style in his 'Recollections' is characterized by a blend of straightforward military reportage and personal anecdote, making it not only an important historical document but also a readable and engaging narrative. Gilbert M. Sorrel's contributions to the literary canon of Civil War literature continue to be recognized for their unique perspective and the clarity with which they convey the experiences of a Confederacy at war.
