Man, imagine that Confederate soldier shooting at who turned out to be his commander...then learning that the commander died.

"At Chancellorsville we gained another victory; our people were wild with delight-I, on the contrary, was more depressed than after Fredericksburg; our loss was severe, and again we gained not an inch of ground and the enemy could not be pursued."

@TheIrishvolunteer

Can't wait for future content regarding the civil war, your collaboration with epic history produced some of the best battle descriptions on the internet!

@chasechristophermurraydola9314

I can already tell that this video is going to be a masterpiece.

@98tharmorcav

I've been waiting for some American Civil War battles from you! This was amazing! I hope to see more like this, maybe even more from the French and Indian wars, U.S. Revolution and the War of 1812. Thank you for all that you do.

@liberatumtaiwanae3580

Not stressed particularly but Jackson's forced march through muddy rained bushy tracks for 10 hours, while his troopers intact enough to carry out night attack past 5pm, this shows the leader's charisma and understanding of logistics. Rebel soldiers were willing to follow Jackson to unknown territory of the slaughter (battle). Also kudos to Federal brigades fended off this surprise flanking. Both sides must be well drilled and whole heartedly believed in their cause of sacrificing their own lives.

@WarhawkYT

Thanks for the collaboration, I enjoyed working with yall!

@maiasdad

Tactical masterstroke. Strategically insignificant. Lee’s enduring military legacy

@fleetadmiral89

Thanks so much for doing Civil War battles! I don't hear so much about them as ancient battles, so it's good that someone is looking at them.

@FreeFallingAir

This is fantastic. I was recently reading up on these campaigns, thank you for bringing them to life!

@kerranz

Thanks so much for this. One of my ancestors fought in a New York artillery brigade in the battle of the Wilderness soon after all this, so it's awesome to see how it all laid out.

@dwayneskinner6984

Nice to see some Civil War battles being covered

@joedavis6290

Love this one, I used to live in Fredericksburg now in Richmond and just listening to this I can visualize the exact places you are talking about

@arthurlongshore8062

I usually listen to podcasts or audiobook breakdowns of famous battles, so seeing the way they unfolded on the battlefield really helps grasp how the tactics and settings can override the numerical advantage during the fight.

@nobleidowu4919

Right from the Caption to the commentary and every bit of your video is usually a topnotch.

@Googers503

Would love to see whole series on the American civil war

@RealSaintB

The Red Badge of Courage is a fictional account of the Battle of Chancellorsville described through the eyes of a Private named Henry, who finds himself become the color guard of his regiment by the end of the battle's 3rd or 4th day. We never find out what happened to Henry afterwards.
