GDG- Book review on Robert E. Lee

[Tom Ryan]

<<A weakness of the review (it may be a weakness of the book under
review) is that there is no mention of Emory Thomas's bio of Lee,
one of the more recent ones done by a serious scholar.>>

I did not mention it because frankly I have not read it.  However, having
read it, I doubt whether it would have changed the review substantially,
since it is unlikely that Thomas had access to the extensive materials that
Pryor did.

If you happen to read Pryor's book or if you already have, I would be
interested in how you compare her and Thomas' versions.
