A spectacular document of first-person history, this collection of
correspondence written by Confederate general ROBERT E. LEE
(1807-1870) offers an unparalleled look into the mind of one of the
towering figures of American history. Compiled and introduced by
Lee's son ROBERT EDWARD LEE (1843-1914) and first published in
1904, these missives follow Lee's life from his early service in
the United States Army and years as superintendent at West Point
through the Civil War to his final years and last thoughts on the
war. From such intimate issues as Lee's missing the family pets
while away at war and his desires to visit his daughter Annie's
grave to such momentous matters as his perspective on great battles
and his thoughts on the Reconstruction, this is a book for readers
of history and personal biography to treasure.
