Chancellorsville

This book is about the Chancellorsville Campaign. The depth of the analyses of the Chancellorsville campaign derives not only from personal observations of the battlefield, but from through and exhaustive research of the military dispatches, orders, after-battle reports and personal narratives of participants. This conflict is rich in military lessons. Victory at Chancellorsville gave Lee and his men a false sense of optimism that they could defeat the Union Army anywhere any time.
