Chancellorsville, 1863 - Robert E. Lee's Greatest Battle - HistoryMarche Reaction

Hey man, thanks so much for checking out the video and offering nuance that I hadn't covered! Listening to your commentary, I regret not including a few things and also rearranging some of the info better. I wish all reaction videos were this good!

As a northerner I always joke with my southern friends that a 2nd southern invasion of the north could never happen since modern southerners would take winter attrition in 40 degree weather.

“It’s good to have confidence; it’s not good to be stupid.” Truer words were never spoken.

Seeing VTH finally doing a reaction to this is gold. Then seeing it is one hour plus is god level enjoyment.

Sickles' attorney who successfully argued temporary insanity was Edwin Stanton who is now Lincoln's Secretary of War.

You always manage to put out a banger when I need it most. My Grandfather with a love of history (mostly relating to theatre) passed away yesterday. I am currently hundreds of miles away with nothing I can do and videos like this help me a lot. Keep up the phenomenal work.

Doing a checkup on my family’s civil war history and as of now I had 10 ancestors and 6 uncles at the Battle of Chancellorsville (all Southern side)

Historymarche is great! One of my all time favorite history channels🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I want to see more content like this video of the civil war. I’d love to see epic history do a full series like the Napoleonic wars for the civil war

You have reinvigorated my love for history. Love the content man! Keep up the great work 👍🏻

This video was pretty good. I lived on this battlefield for about 15 years. The end of my driveway was McLaws line as I lived on “McLaws Drive”. Oh and it is 45 minute drive from the Stone Wall of Fredericksburg to the Wilderness and then down to The Bloody Angle of Spotsylvania

I will say, while son of Lees fame comes from his skills as a general, a lot of his fame comes from the fact that he was one of the most beloved generals in history, no army loved their general as much as the Army of Northern Virginia loved Lee

Great presentation. Awesome graphics‼️ Your extra anecdotes were worthwhile. I’m going to subscribe.

These guys have some GREAT content. I've been making my way through their Civil War playlist and plan on continuing to watch them. They have some really interesting stuff.

The battles in 1864 in this area of the wilderness, they said the shallow buried dead, bones, skulls and rib cages from the yr before were coming out if the mud they were fighting in. A serious moral blow and mental affliction on the men...imagine trying to understand what it was for at that point, and they too are gonna end up in a muddy un marked grave??. Sad.

As a Civil War fanatic, I have been binging all of your content lately. I visited Manasass last month and it sent me spiraling into a wormhole of Civil War content. Thanks for what you do! One thing I told my wife as we passed through Virginia was that you can literally throw a rock in any direction and hit a battle site.

I love History Marche...you guys are awesome and having VloggingThroughHistory who is awesome makes this an awesome video:)

Ok as the resident Kuntucky Civil War Nerd, I have to defend Bragg at Perryville He took 16,000 men up against 40% of the Union force in Kentucky (Buell had roughly 55,000 total men, 22,000 were on the field at Perryville). He attacked on all 3 fronts, pushed the Union force backwards over 1 mile in 7 hours and only gave up ground because Don Carlos Buell finally started moving his remaining corps into the area because he didn't know a battle had been raging all day until Union troops started falling back from the field in droves. Bragg knew with a force of that size, Buell could easily swing around and cut off the Cumberland Gap and eliminate Bragg's entire supply lines. He also realized that he could no longer obey Richmond's orders to wait for Kentucky infantry volunteers because no one was coming and the Kentucky Confederate Capitol at Bowling Green had been captured and taken out of the picture. The incompetent general at Perryville was Don Carlos Buell not Braxton Bragg, His incompetence would show up at Stones River two months later though

both the original video and your reaction video are top notch. Subscribing to both.

thanks for throwing the VMI info in there.
