*****Of all the awe-inspiring, monumental--and beloved--figures of the Civil War, probably o other holds a place of such honor and importance as General Robert E. Lee. This book not only presents a wonderfully lucid picture of the entire war in the East, but also vitalizes one of the most romantic and inspiring figures in American history. It separates the man from the myth but, amazingly enough, makes the great man even more admirable.
***This is the narrative life, told in more dramatic style than has been previously attempted, but based firmly on eyewitness accounts, Lee's letters and dispatches, and his recorded conversations. It covers all evens in Lee's war career: his decision to stand by Virginia, the disappointing campaign in West Virginia, his first major command and the victorious Seven Days.
***Through these pages, the imposing figure of Lee moves on to Second Manassas, Sharpsburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, the Wilderness--- and finally to the trenches around Richmond and Peterburg, ending with one of the most moving accounts of Appomattox yet written.
***Burke Davis's particular flair for the immediate you-are-there quality has never been better displayed than in Gray Fox---a book that has assured him an honored place among the writers who have explored with such important results the great cataclysm of our past.
