West Point classmates-Civil War enemies : In a great irony, former West Point classmates faced on another on opposite sides of the battlefield-Union Generals Sherman, McClellan and Grant versus Confederate Generals Beauregard, Lee and President Jefferson Davis. Through their own words, great men tell of the costs of war and the glories gained. -- Robert E. Lee : A masterful technician with uncommon grace in defeat, the greatest commander of the Civil War ended up on the losing side. The son of a Revolutionary War hero, Robert E. Lee graduated second in his class at West Point, but his brilliant military career with the North came to an end when Virginia seceded. A fascinating profile, this a truly intimate encounter with one of the conflict's most powerful and enigmatic figures.
