Robert E. Lee was both a military genius and a spiritual leader, considered by many, southerners and nonsoutherners alike, to have been a near saint. In The Marble Man a leading Civil War military historian examines the hold of Lee on the American mind and traces the campaign in historiography that elevated him to national hero status.
