In the year 1863, a Civil War took place in Virginia which is the Battle of Chancellorsville, in banks of a narrow river for two months the two armies had been staked out. General Robert E. Lee led the Confederate troops. General Robert E. Lee is the reversed military tactician in American history. "Fighting" Joe Hooker led the Union soldiers. Both the leads were different in their appearance, personality, and lifestyle. General Robert E. Lee, an old man, is poor by his health with a grey beard wherein Joe Hooker was a young blond with egotism. They both were all set for the battle and Hooker was confident that he can win easily regardless of the army size of Lee. Hooker was overconfident, as he had 134,000 men wherein Lee had only 61,000 men. Hooker smartly moved 70,000 of his men to sneak back down behind Lee’s army, fifteen miles across the river, Hooker has cut off the Confederate soldiers as they were trapped; this left him happy and convinced that Union will crown the victory. Hooker thought Lee will retreat; instead, he moved his troops into position to attack which was not taken seriously by Hooker.
