E. Lee; from J. W. Jones' Life and Letters of Robert Edward Lee: "The idea of offering General Lee the presidency of the College of Washington and Lee originated with Hon. Bolivar Christian of Staunton one of the trustees and it was suggested to him by hearing of a remark made by one of his daughters to the effect 'They are offering my father everything except the only thing he will accept a place to earn honest bread while engaged in some useful work.'" Bolivar was the deciding factor behind both the nomination and acceptance of the position for which Lee was at first reluctant. ~~The Nevins bibliography considers Allan's study to be "persuasive" Nevins I 21.

"The Eakins Press Foundation is proud to announce the publication of Magicians & Charlatans by the art critic Jed Perl. In this collection of 26 essays Mr. Perl writes with great urgency about the art scene of the past decade. The poet John Ashbery has said that "For years Jed Perl has been covering the art world with tremendous empathy and unsparing accuracy. His ability to recognize the traditional forms of art behind their continual transmutation has made his an almost solitary essential voice." The essays range from highly controversial critiques of the painter Gerhard Richter the art dealer Leo Castelli and the Museum of Modern Art to appreciations of the art of Bernini and Chardin and the writings of Edmund Wilson and Meyer Schapiro."--Publisher's description.
