After graduating from Randolph-Macon College (B.A., 1955), Robertson obtained his M.A. (1956) and Ph.D. (1959) at Emory University and served as a teaching fellow (instructor in history) at Emory from 1958 to 1959. From 1959 to 1961, Robertson served as editor of Civil War History, a quarterly journal published by the University of Iowa. In 1961, he was appointed executive director of the National Civil War Centennial Commission by President John F. Kennedy and served until 1965, supervising the national observance of the Civil War centenary. Robertson served as professor of history at the University of Montana from 1965 until 1967, when he joined the faculty of Virginia Tech. He served as History Department head from 1969 to 1977, and was C. P. Miles Professor of History from 1977 to 1992. He became Alumni Distinguished Professor of History in 1992.","Robertson has authored many award-winning scholarly books on Civil War-related topics, including Soldiers Blue and Gray (1988) (nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in History), Civil War Virginia: Battleground for a Nation (1991), General A. P. Hill: The Story of a Confederate Warrior; and Stonewall Jackson: The Man, the Soldier, the Legend (1997). He has also written two books for younger readers: Civil War! America Becomes One Nation (1992) and Standing Like a Stone Wall: the Life of General Thomas J. Jackson (2001). Robertson has been a contributing author and editor for several other works; his articles, too numerous to list here, have appeared in many encyclopedias, Civil War magazines and historical society journals.","The guide to the James I.

Most of his letters are from Virginia, but there are a few from his travels to Tennessee, Connecticut, and Wisconsin.","Goldman's letters consist of flirtatious writing to Baron and also describes his work for the union as well as locals' adminstrative work, finances, and accounting books. In a letter to Baron dated November 09, 1948, Goldman writes, \"The enclosed letters speak for themselves. I have no comment nor any excuses. I have not changed nor can I change my beliefs.\" The first enclosed letter from William Pollock, the General Secretary-Treasurer of the Textile Workers Union, includes accusations against Goldman, such as \"He has condemned vociferously the Union's support of Truman and liberal candidates ... His support of Russian policies is without question, positive proof to me that he is a Communist ... he refused to condemn the witch hunts on true trade unionists in the Soviet, and the slaughter of millions of Christians in the Soviet ... I must say he is without a doubt, the strangest liberal I have ever met or seen ... his hatred for Brother Sol Stetin knows no bounds.\"","The collection includes a single letter from Baron to Goldman. In the letter dated February 12, 1948, she writes, \"Today may be Lincoln's birthday and a holiday in some places, but not at 469 Broadway. I had to work, and all day too.\" She later jokes about his hotel room, \"Your room sounds quite enchanting. All that and roaches too. Perhaps you can strike up an aquaintance with one. Perhaps you can even train it.\"","Goldman wrote each letter using the stationery from the hotels he stayed at during his travels.
