You cannot give anything close to a proper summary of Robert E. Lee in one post unless you have about an hour to kill, which I don’t. That’s why I urge people to go read about the man themselves. Once you do you’ll realize how stupid and ignorant people who bash and disrespect R.E. Lee sound.
I've read the Grant biography and numerous Lee "biographies".
Grant is much more interesting and inspiring.
And respectable.

Grant was a drunk and struggled to take Vicksburg being held by starving confederates. He already vastly outnumbered them and still kept asking for even more troops. He was also a backstabber according to many people of the day.
