John Warwick Daniel (September 5, 1842 – June 29, 1910) was an American lawyer, author, and Democratic politician from Lynchburg, Virginia who promoted the Lost Cause of the Confederacy.
Daniel served in both houses of the Virginia General Assembly, then represented Virginia in both the U.S.
House and then multiple terms in the U.S.
Senate.
Daniel was sometimes called the "Lame Lion of Lynchburg", alluding to his permanent disability incurred during the Battle of the Wilderness, while serving as a major in the Confederate Army.
