LEE is a monumental contribution to the literature of the Civil War. Lee's official correspondence~letters, orders, dispatches and battle reports~is complemented by his letters to his family to present a previously unavailable picture of Lees total life during the war. In Lees official correspondence there is the guarded control of careful composition; in the letters he wrote to his family there is a casual candor about the larger events and the course of their fortunes. The letters, written in Lees flowing but precise style, are self~explanatory. From them emerges the full and human character of this legendary man whose devotion to his cause was complete, yet totally realistic. THE WARTIME PAPERS OF R. E. LEE testifies to Lees comprehensive grasp of action across all fronts~and discredits forever the myth that Lees interests were restricted to the Army of Northern Virginia. Clifford Dowdey, distinguished historian and author of many well~known works on the Confederacy, has acted as general editor of the volume and has provided a short narrative connecting each section, placing the letters in the context of the events of the war. Louis H. Manarin has assembled and prepared the texts of the papers themselves. More than six thousand items of Lee's correspondence for the four years of the war have been discovered. Outside of the strictly military correspondence in the Official Records, few of Lee's letters have been published in full, and most of his personal letters have never before been published. Here for the first time are collected the most significant items of this correspondence. With the publication of this volume it is possible to know Lee fully. At the end, in April, 1865, Lee's message to Grant is written with a dignity and a stark simplicity which become all the more moving for the intimate knowledge we have gained of him through his correspondence. Here is Lee~the total man, self~revealed. THE WARTIME PAPERS OF R. E. LEE has been sponsored by the Virginia Civil War Commission as part of its cornmemoration of the Civil War Centennial.…
