Summary:
"Defeated on the battlefield, Robert E. Lee soon faced the wrath of vengeful northerners, including indictment for treason just weeks after the Civil War ended. This book tells the forgotten story of Lee's indictment and the slow process by which his memory was transformed from traitor to American icon." -- (Source of summary not specified.)
