Having reorganised the army and improved morale, he planned an attack that would take his army to Richmond and end the war. Although faced by an army twice his size, the Confederate commander Robert E. Lee split his forces: Jubal Early was left to hold off Sedgwick's Fredericksburg attack, and 'Stonewall' Jackson was sent with 26,000 men in a wide envelopment around Hooker's right flank. This title details how at dusk on May 2, Jackson's men crashed into the Federal right flank, and how stiffening Federal resistance slowed the Confederate advance the next day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOrigins of the Campaign\/Opposing Commanders\/Opposing Armies\/Order of Battle\/Chancellorsville: Day One\/Day Two\/Day Three\/Chancellorsville Today\/Wargaming Chancellorsville\/Further Reading","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51020747374935,"sku":"9781855327214","price":15.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/chancellorsville-1863-jacksons-lightning-strike-9781855327214","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
