It was the first battle of the Civil War and a Confederate victory. In its aftermath, powerful Virginia joined the Confederacy. Southerners were jubilant.
July 1861: The First Battle of Bull Run
This Confederate victory stunned the overconfident Union forces. The Union Army retreated in disorder to Washington, D.C., as horrified citizens looked on. Confederate General Thomas J. Jackson won his nickname “Stonewall.”
April 1862: Battle of Shiloh
This Union victory was won at a terrible cost: each side lost more than 10,000 men killed, wounded, or missing. Americans were appalled at the number of casualties.
August 1862: Second Battle of Bull Run
This was the second Confederate victory at this battle site named for a nearby creek. The Confederates again swept Union forces from the field.
September 1862: Battle of Antietam
September 17, 1862, remains the bloodiest single day in American history. The Union victory left more than 22,000 men killed or wounded in one day of fighting.
December 1862: Battle of Fredericksburg
Northern troops attacked General Robert E. Lee’s forces, but the Confederates were firmly dug in on high ground and repelled the attack.
April–May 1863: Battle of Chancellorsville
This Confederate victory showed General Robert E. Lee’s brilliance as a military commander. With Union forces threatening to outflank him, Lee divided his forces and ordered an attack that outflanked the Union instead.
