A re-examination of the military genius of the leader of the Confederate military.  The bulk of the book is taken up with detailed recreations of every battle involving the Army of Northern Virginia, focusing on Lee's role in them.  The author, an unabashed admirer of Lee, argues that Lee was far superior to the leaders of the Northern forces.  Lee's role in reconciling the divided country after the war is also briefly discussed. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
