Is robert e. lee the greatest general of all time?

Robert Edward Lee was not the best general of all time George Washington was the best general of all time  

Explanation:  America's first president also happened to be one of the best generals of all time — and it's clear that if Washington had not existed, the United States would never have been born.

At the beginning of the Revolutionary War, American forces were woefully underprepared and undersupplied. Moreover, they were grossly outnumbered. The only things that they had going for them were Washington's intelligence, guerilla warfare tactics, and a strong knowledge of the local terrain.

Washington took full advantage of the fact that Britain believed in "classical war," which meant lining up on a battlefield to attack both sides. Using guerilla strategies, traps, and a little bit of camouflage, Washington was able to overcome the lack of supplies and men on his side.

Most importantly, Washington was able to command his soldiers and keep them united towards a cause. Those who fought in the Revolution weren't just soldiers; they were brothers-in-arms and acted like it.

As a result, a small, newly born country was able to topple the grip of the most powerful empire in its time.
