Mohun is a Civil War novel that blends historical events with fiction, recounting the final days of the Confederate army under General Robert E. Lee. The novel is a sequel to Surry of Eagle's-Nest, continuing the adventures of its protagonist, Colonel Surry. Through a romanticized lens, Cooke portrays the experiences of soldiers, heroism, and the South's struggle during the war. The narrative mixes real military figures with imaginative scenes, offering a nostalgic view of the Confederacy's demise. John Esten Cooke (1830-1886) was a prolific Virginia-born writer best known for his historical romances and works focused on the American Civil War. A Confederate officer during the war, Cooke served under generals J.E.B. Stuart and William N. Pendleton. His experiences heavily influenced his post-war novels, blending romanticized depictions of the South with real military figures. Cooke's most famous works include Surry of Eagle's-Nest and Mohun, both fictionalized memoirs of the Civil War, as well as biographies like The Life of Stonewall Jackson and A Life of Gen. Robert E. Lee. Although his works romanticized the Confederacy, they were also part of a broader effort to reconcile post-war divisions in the United States¿(
