The life of Robert E. Lee, hero of the Confenderacy and a giant of American history coincided with the early years of photography. This book contains a wealth of images with captions to give the reader a picture of the man and his times. Lee as commander of the Southern army is an imposing figure. Far less known are his childhood years; his family and home life; his early career as a civil engineer, redirecting the flow of the Mississippi River in St Louis; his stint in the Mexican War; and his tenure as superintendent of West Point. After the Civil War Lee had a third career as president of Washington College (which would become Washington and Lee). Here in the pictorial biography are the people, places, objects and events that intersected with Lee's life.
