Excerpt from Gen. Robert Edward Lee: Soldier, Citizen, and Christian Patriot; Also in Interesting Early History of the Lee Family in England and America; A Military Biography of the Great Confederate Leader; Splendid Tributes by the Most Distinguished Military Critics in America and Europe
Whilst it is not a schoolbook, yet it is more comprehensively educative; inspiring in fact and attractive in picture.
In becoming minutely informed of the ancestry, associations and noble life of Robert Edward Lee - unalloyed in its entire exemplification with aught to cause regret - youth of both sexes can but be stimulated to the development of all that is good, sweet and noble in human nature.
Perhaps the most complete survey of the character and career of General Lee is given in an editorial in the London Standard, which appeared soon after his death. It is well to preserve it entire here: Few are the generals who have earned, since history began, a greater military reputation; still fewer are the men of similar eminence, civil or military, whose personal qualities would bear comparison with his.
