About David Palmer as Lee, Robert E. :

David Palmer portrays General Robert E. Lee by providing an uncanny resemblance, authentic period uniform and astounding knowledge on the Civil War. After many times of being mistaken as Lee, Palmer decided to develop this character. He has been involved in Civil War reenacting and living history for the past ten years. His attention to detail and accuracy have set him apart from other Lee interpreters. Spend some time with the General and get to know a true Virginian and American.

"Mr. Palmer was able to sublimate his own personality and virtually became General Lee.  I've seen four other re-enactors perform as war-time characters, Mr. Palmer was by far superior."
