GENERAL ROBERT E. LEE, C.S.A.

General Robert E. Lee is admired throughout the Western world for leading a non-professional army of Southern "soldiers" in a so-called "Civil War" to establish on this continent a second American nation based on individual liberty and honor. But this time was to be true. The Southerner fought for his land, home, farms, women, children and honor. This was no where more apparent than the choice of General Robert E. Lee to lead the troops. Lee accepted because he sincerely believed he was fighting a Second American Revolution, meant to thwart a greedy federal government dead set on establishing the USA as a world power. This book, written by his son at a mature age, mixes recollections and letters to give us a real picture of the man so idolized by his followers. How did he really feel about the African implants? How exactly did this man take almost a million raw, untrained farmers and turn them into one of the finest, most successful armies on earth? Was he the Gentleman Soldier of legend?
