"Douglas Southall Freeman, Lee, an abridgement by Richard Harwell"

RE Lee's situation in West Virginia is similar to that of Confederate forces throughout the war -- seemingly adequate manpower, but very short on basic supplies.

The result could be inconclusive battles, for which Lee himself may, or may not, be blamed.
