I think Lee was great from a tactical perspective, but as a strategist he left a lot to be desired.  Going on the offensive in Maryland and Pennsylvania did nothing but galvanize northern resolve and squandered the South's limited manpower and resources.  The later years of defensive entrenchment could have won the war for the South had they applied that strategy from the beginning.
