From starting out at West point to his graduation, R.E. Lee was to all extents...average. It was later on that in true combat he proved his mettle and apptitude for war. He never truly wanted to fight for the Confederate States of America; he vowed to protect his beloved state of Virginia. And due to the inability of the government and the Union Armies subsequent invasion, he went home to defend his people and his state. The greatest mistake Lee ever made was at Gettysburg. He ignored wise council and pressed the attack. However, while the outcome was anything but assured; Lee fell back into his former mediocre ways and held back. The most damning loss in MY opinion to Lee and his campaign was the loss of Longstreet. But ultimatley his greates contributions came AFTER the war. He and his former "enemies" went about the rebuilding of the nation as smoothly and gently as could be reasonably expected. His involvements in the education fields proved MOST admirable and successful. His love for Virginia and the loss of his campaign in the civil war are NOT one and the same! Were it not for Virginia seceding and being attacked, R.E. Lee would have been the greatest general of the war; possibly in our nations history. His single greastest achievement was what he brought with him whether he felt it or not; HOPE!
