The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 3: The Irish Brigade)

en.wikipedia.org The battle of Fredericksburg began early in the morning as General Franklin (whose army was to the west of Fredericksburg) marched on Jackson's line, and in the morning fog, managed to get two divisions past Jackson's lines. The attack was stopped by Confederate artillery, leading to an artillery duel between Major John Pelham and his Confederate battery and an opposing Union battery. The attacks on Marye's Heights were disastrous, and doomed from the start. Swampy land ...

The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 1: The Evacuation)

en.wikipedia.org Now under the command of General Ambrose Burnside, the Army of the Potomac aims to once again invade and destroy Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. This time, Lee's army is spread out along Fredericksburg. Burnside needs only to cross his army across the river and attack the fractured Confederate army. If that had truly happened, you wouldn't be watching this video now. In one of many instances of sheer incompetency and sluggishness on the part of General Burnside ...

The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 5: 20th Maine)

en.wikipedia.org What more do you want me to say? The video doesn't display the parts of the battle taking place south of Fredericksburg... and I haven't studied the battle thoroughly enough to give you a play-by-play analysis of the entire thing. In this scene it's the 20th Maine's turn to be exploited by Burnside's ineptitude in crossing the Rappahannock early and cutting Lee's army in two.

The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 4: Caldwell's Brigade)

en.wikipedia.org As they form up for battle and charge, Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain goes over the drills in his head on how to arrange the man in battle formation while under fire. Also in the video, the instance in which General Longstreet (actual historical words) claimed of Lee's remark that the Union forces may overrun his troops' position, "Sir, if they send every man they have this side of the Rappahannock, just give me plenty of ammunition and I'll kill 'em all, before they reach our ...

The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 2: "Hail Caesar")

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org The Union forces began crossing the pontoon bridge, while Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain recounts a passage from Marcus Lucanus regarding Caesar's crossing of the Rubicon river in the Civil War between he and Pompeius. Using this space to get this out of the way, I should say that the Union army did attempt to flank the Confederates, and attacked the lines of AP Hill and Thomas Jackson far left of the town of Fredericksburg itself. However, the core action in ...

The Battle of Fredericksburg (Part 6: Aftermath)

en.wikipedia.org Burnside's attempts to sweep across the Rappahannock and destroy Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia ended in failure, as he, in what would become typical of him, waited too long, and moved too slowly in crossing the river, giving the Confederates ample time to entrench themselves. The Union suffered 12653 casualties, to the Confederates' 5377, the majority of Southern casualties taking place on Jackson's side as they were attacked early on. Despite this catastrophic ...
