About Robert E Lee
Robert E. Lee (1807-1870) was an American military officer and the commanding general of the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War. Born in Virginia to a prominent plantation family, he graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point and served with distinction in the Mexican-American War. Lee's leadership during the Civil War, particularly in battles such as Gettysburg and Chancellorsville, has made him a controversial historical figure, symbolizing both exceptional military skill and the complexities of the Confederacy's fight for slavery and states' rights.
