It should’ve been mentioned that Davis was also the provisional confederate president before being elected its first official president.
Done with Semmes! Now I plan on doing the rest of the CS and US Presidents. Starting with Jefferson Davis below.
I went with Beauregard instead of Bragg, mainly because, 1: President Beauregard has a nice ring to it, and 2: I couldn't find a picture of Braxton Bragg wearing a suit.

Misspelled Lee's first name, but it's otherwise good.
What pictures can I use for Stonewall Jackson and States Rights Gist? Because there are obviously no pictures of them in 1880s/90s (for obvious reasons).
Both of these were sons of Civil War veterans in OTL. I think Buckner would have fit extremely well into the books, but I don't think he makes an appearance at all, am I right?

Apparently tall and muscular and terrifying to look at, though the rabid religious extremism may also have something to do with that.
I always pictured him has a massive square jawed, brown haired and green eyed brute.
Something like this, perhaps? Pictured is Mr Martti Aleksander Pihkala née Gummerus (1882–1966), a Finnish strikebreaker and short-time MP of the interwar era.
I actually had an idea where the US lost the Great War in North America. While the rest of the central powers won in the European theatre. Eventually leading to cold war between Germany and a totalitarian US. Plus maybe a civil war between Mcsweeney and Joe Steele.
Scene from movie; City under Siege
Famed actor, Rob Hoskins, plays future US President Nicholas Kirchner (Soc.), who was an intelligence officer, during the Battle of Pittsburg. The film recreates his famous Pittsburgh speech. It goes as followed;
My name... is Nicholas Kirchner. I've come to take things in hand here. This city is not Cincinnati, nor is it Sandusky, nor Columbus. This city is Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh!! This city is only an afternoon drive away from where the Boss lives. It's more than a city, it's a symbol. If the Confederates capture this city the entire country will collapse. Now I want our boys to raise their heads. I want them to act like they have balls! I want them to stop shitting their pants! That's your job. As intelligence officers I'm counting on you.

(actor: Jude Law portraying Basil Stewart) (Ned Harris portraying Edwin King)
The central plot of “City under Siege” a legendary sniping duel between American Basil Stewart and Confederate Edwin King. There has been much controversy about the accuracy of the story. One historian noted "the painful to watch love triangle had more basis in historical fact than the most exciting sniping scenes". The scene where Nicholas Kirchner forces a US army general to commit suicide, also caused a bit of a stir. While the General did commit suicide during Pittsburgh, the question was it forced upon by Kirchner is hotly debated.
