Generals of the Civil War

In the civil war there were many great soldiers who were fighting for what they thought appropriate for their country. It also has some of the greatest generals in the history of the United States, and unfortunately some of them are on the side of failure, but this fact did not make them so great. Ulysses S. Grant, Robert E. Li, Thomas "Stone Wall" Jackson is a wonderful proof of the dark age. Robert E. Lee was born on January 19, 1807 at Stratford, Virginia. He is the youngest boy who fought for the American revolution.

The medieval graduate of West Point Military Academy in 1843 achieved early success and fame in Western western civil war.

Then he rescued Allied troops trapped in Chattanooga and spent a month there to drive rebels to Georgia there - got Lee's huge help. Eventually, Grant was taken to the east to face Lee's army, and he defeated the effective end of the war within a year.
