I really liked your comment as a whole, but particularly this: "I don't think you can understand why it was so common to have ex-Confederate heroes without understanding it as part of, you know, the failure of Reconstruction and the invention of the Lost Cause mythology."

And YES to the fact that when reading older fiction, you definitely have to take into account the prevailing attitudes and opinions of the time. If you can't get past those parts of the story, then it's probably best to stick to contemporary fiction.
