ROBERT E. LEE: A BIOGRAPHY

Another biography of Robert E. Lee? Can one tell the story of the "marble man" without idolizing him or trashing him because he fought for the Confederacy? Yes, and what we find is a flesh-and-blood Lee who's still a man to be admired. The reading by Davidson is clear, evenly paced and unemotional. His deep baritone gives an aura of authority, and he avoids monotony by changing inflection. This recording is an excellent match of reader and text.
