Another great General of the war. And, perhaps the true Genius. On either side was Nathan, Bedford Forrest.

Another thing about Jackson was he treated hos troops very harshly and indifferently when not in battle, especially in the countless forced marches he demanded. The troops in his corp used to complain that getting to the battle was worse than the actual battle itself.
