historic crush: Robert E. Lee



well, the North may have won the war, but the South certainly had their share of victories also. This man failed only in having a chain of leadership who failed him. Us Yanks were very lucky to have won the war, indeed.
Could be that it is my "favorite" war, but RE Lee is a character for all times: authentic, flawed, loyal, heroic... a man to define history. All this from a lifelong Massachusetts resident. It don't hurt that he was h.o.t.t. either.
