Robert E. Lee, nicknamed the "Monarch of the Mississippi", was a steamboat built in New Albany, Indiana, in 1866. The hull was designed by DeWitt Hill, and the riverboat cost more than $200,000 to build. She was named for Confederate General Robert E. Lee. The steamboat gained her greatest fame for racing and beating the then-current speed record holder, Natchez, in an 1870 steamboat race.
