This book details Lee’s life from Gettysburg to his death just five years after the South’s surrender at Appomattox. Rather than retreating bitterly from life; Lee sought to heal the nation; even meeting with his rival; Ulysses S. Grant; while the former Union general occupied the White House. Leaving his military life behind; Lee went on to become president of Washington College; where he was revered for his fairness as well as his willingness to help struggling students.
