Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Robert E. Lee AMERICA'S GENERAL
Robert E. Lee was America's General. He was a great man who'd legacy is to be told forever. He did not support the radical slavery movements of the south but did love his native state. He was a calm and bold gentleman who's gentle face and lovig nature made him a legend in his own right. Lee deserves the honor that is preserved in this book. This book captures the true beauty of AMERICA'S GENERAL.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An excellent reference on Lee
This text should be in every Civil War collectors library.
