    ROBERT E. LEE
    .  Robert E. Lee (1807-1870) was a general of the Confederate States Army who commanded the Army of Northern Virginia.  He is arguably the most brilliant commander of field armies in American History. Within months of his surrender to Grant and the close of the Civil War, Lee became the president of Washington College where he would remain until his death.
