About this eBook

Robert E. Lee, the Confederate general, remains a complex and controversial figure in American history. Born in 1807 in Virginia, Lee was a distinguished West Point graduate and military officer before assuming leadership of the Confederate Army during the Civil War. This biography examines his strategic brilliance in battles like Gettysburg and Antietam, his personal beliefs, and the legacy of his surrender at Appomattox in 1865, which helped end the conflict. Despite his military skills, Lee’s role in defending the Confederacy and its connection to slavery has sparked ongoing debates about his legacy. This book explores Lee’s life, his impact on American history, and his place in a nation grappling with its past.
