How Good Was Robert E. Lee

Keith, Patrick AMH2010

My understanding of Robert E. Lee had at least one slave even though he felt that the slavery was wrong. Lee was a good tactician, I do not know how good of a strategist that he was, because I do not know how much liberty he had in forming strategy for the Confederacy. Inevitable it was strategic error that cost the union the war, but then isn’t that always the case.

Robert E. Lee did a good job of strategy in the Mexican War. Because of him Santa Anna retreated leaving his leg behind. It was Robert E. Lee that thought of taking the hill. Because of him the Mexicans surrendered at the Battle of Cerro Gordo. Lee Guerra AMH 2010 m-f
