He was an inspirational Confederate cavalry leader, one of those, like Lee and Stonewall, who embodied the soul and spirit of the Confederacy. However many blame him for the defeat at Gettysburg, as he failed to complete his scouting mission until the third day of the battle, so the army had no idea of the enemy's position.

He died heroically at the height of a Confederate victory at Spotsylvania, at the beginning of the Overland gampaign.
