Robert E. Lee Letter Signed Battle of Chancellorsville
General Robert E. Lee letter signed, composed a week after Lee executed his “perfect battle” plan at Chancellorsville. In the face of overwhelming Union forces, Lee made the bold decision on 1 May 1863 to split his army, pitting a small force to defend Fredericksburg against the advance of Union General John Sedgwick, and using the remainder of his army to attack Union General Joseph Hooker’s forces. The strategy was so effective that Lee divided his army a second time on 2 May, allowing General Stonewall Jackson to rout the Union’s XI Corps, and causing Hooker to hesitate before ultimately withdrawing his forces. Indeed, the battle was so perfectly executed that many believe it led to Lee’s hubristic decision to pursue the Union army north, leading to the Battle of Gettysburg, which completely altered the course of the Civil War. Sold for $7,873.
