Description
7 p.m. - Tickets Required
Dr. Allen C. Guelzo is the Senior Research Scholar in the Council of the Humanities at Princeton University, where he also directs the James Madison Program's Initiative on Politics and Statesmanship. His most recent book is Robert E. Lee: A Life (Knopf, 2021).
“Robert E. Lee and the Pursuit of Perfection”
Robert E. Lee was often characterized as remote and not given to self-revelation. But that was part of a lifetime pattern, cast by the long shadow of his father, Light-Horse Harry Lee, in which Lee was driven to pursue perfection, independence and security. Only at the end of his life, as president of Washington College, did he bring these pursuits into harmony.
