Synopsis
Robert E. Lee was both a military genius and a spiritual leader, considered by many―southerners and nonsoutherners alike―to have been a near saint. In The Marble Man a leading Civil War military historian examines the hold of Lee on the American mind and traces the campaign in historiography that elevated him to national hero status.

Review
An engaging, provocative book. . . . As a study of symbol-making [it] is first-rate. (Washington Post)
An excellent reappraisal of Lee. Highly recommended. (Library Journal)
Connelly provides a fascinating insight into the historical press-agentry through which Lee was enshrined as...an exemplar of American virtues. (Saturday Review)
