This second volume of words and statements of Robert E. Lee speak of duty and principle, faith and doubt, bravery in the face of certain defeat, hard choices, and the qualities of leadership that made him great. Lee's command was characterized by gallantry and chivalry in the face of overwhelming odds.
This remarkable two-in-one edition is a fascinating collection of observances and utterances from Robert E. Lee and the South's great generals and leaders of the Confederacy--Stonewall Jackson, A.L. Long, James Longstreet, Jefferson Davis, and Jeb Stuart--showing their pride, dignity, humanity, and respect for life in the midst of the horror of war.
