A spectacular document of first-person history, this collection of correspondence written by Confederate general ROBERT E. LEE (1807-1870) offers an unparalleled look into the mind of one of the towering figures of American history. Compiled and introduced by Lee's son ROBERT EDWARD LEE (1843-1914) and first published in 1904, these missives follow Lee's life from his early service in the United States Army and years as superintendent at West Point through the Civil War to his final years and last thoughts on the war. From such intimate issues as Lee's missing the family pets while away at war and his desires to visit his daughter Annie's grave to such momentous matters as his perspective on great battles and his thoughts on the Reconstruction, this is a book for readers of history and personal biography to treasure.

Gen. Robert E. Lee's courage and steadfastness, fierce temper, and intense personality are already well-known, but what is less-known are his impressive acts of chivalry, compassion shown towards his enemies, his fondness for animals, and his tenderness towards family and friends. Serving as a perfect companion to his first compilation, Robert E. Lee's Lighter Side, this collection includes letters, diary excerpts, and touching stories from Lee himself, as well as his wife, children, students, and strangers who recorded his acts of kindness. This is not a book about Lee's sentimentality or weakness, but serves instead to offer surprising glimpses at his more merciful side. Chapters include examples of Lee's expressions of sensitivity towards family, fellow soldiers, slaves, and others, documenting the full humanity of this complex man.

Published in 1915, this volume contains unpublished letters of Robert E. Lee, C.S.A. to Jefferson Davis and the War Department Of The Confederate States Of America 1862-65.
