Abstract | Asserts that Robert E. Lee holds a paradoxical position in U.S. history: he fought against the U.S. government and to preserve slavery; yet he is one of the most respected and revered generals and personalities in the nation's history. Reviews the historiography and changing historical interpretations of Lee. (CFR) |
