Fighting Amongst Flames at the Orange Turnpike: Chancellorsville 160

The Battle of Chancellorsville raged for more than five hours near the crossroads "town." Fighting in the woods north of the Orange Turnpike was confusing and vicious throughout May 3, 1863. Fires engulfed part of the woods while Robert E. Lee's and Joseph Hooker's armies clashed for control of the Chancellorsville Crossroads. Jeb Stuart pushed the Army of the Potomac from the west, while Robert E. Lee attacked from the east. Join Chris Mackwoski, Sarah Kay Bierle, Steward Henderson, Greg Mertz, and Kris White as they examine this heartbreaking clash of arms at Chancellorsville. This video is part of our coverage commemorating the 160th Anniversary of the Battle of Chancellorsville.
