General Robert E. Lee was a complicated man and military figure—a tragic hero of a lost war. Here, for the first time, Noah Andre Trudeau follows the general's Civil War path with a special emphasis on Lee's changing set of personal values as the conflict wended through four bloody years, and explores his famous skills as a crafty and daring tactician.

Lee delivers a fresh perspective on the man, as well as on the war that divided our nation and led to many of the sectional political issues that have since cast a long shadow over American politics
