Title
Campaign Chancellorsville - Paperback
by Theodore Ayrault Dodge (Author), Stephen W. Sears (Introduction by)
The clash at Chancellorsville in 1863 was an enormously complex ten-day campaign. At its conclusion, General Joseph Hooker, the confident commander of the Army of the Potomac, was in disgrace, while Confederate General Robert E. Lee had won a decisive victory but at the loss of the irreplaceable "Stonewall" Jackson, killed by friendly fire.At age nineteen Theodore Ayrault Dodge volunteered for the Union cause. As part of the Eleventh Corps--surprised and routed by "Stonewall" Jackson's celebrated flank attack--he participated in the battle's fiercest and costliest fighting. (Dodge would later lose a leg at Gettysburg.) This second 1886 edition of his classic study, first published in 1881, is marked by Dodge's unsparing analysis and astute interpretations, which have retained their value and vigor for over a century.

The clash at Chancellorsville in 1863 was both an unexpected and resounding Union defeat and a bold, brilliantly executed Confederate victory. It was also an enormously complex ten-day campaign, marked by intricate maneuvering and convoluted high-command decisions that continue to defy easy analysis. At its conclusion, General Joseph Hooker, the confident commander of the Army of the Potomac, was in disgrace, while Confederate General Robert E. Lee had won a decisive victory but at an exorbitant price: the irreplaceable loss of "Stonewall" Jackson, killed by friendly fire.
