    HAMLIN, Augustus C. Two manuscript maps detailing "Stonewall" Jackson's flank attack at the Battle of Chancellorsville. WITH: The Battle of Chancellorsville. Maps: No place, circa 1890s. (Book: Bangor, Maine: by the Author, 1896). Two maps on one folio leaf of oilcloth and one quarto leaf of paper; map on oilcloth measures 16 by 10-3/4 inches, accomplished in red, brown and black ink with green watercolor; map on paper measures 8 by 10-1/2 inches, accomplished in black, blue and red ink, entitled "Map No. 3 Time 10 PM to 12 M May 2, 1863. (Book: octavo, original cloth). $15,000.Remarkable set of two spectacular hand-drawn and hand-painted maps documenting "Stonewall" Jackson's daring flank attack at the Battle of Chancellorsville where he would be mortally wounded, finely and meticulously accomplished by the nephew of Abraham Lincoln's Vice President: artist, author, and Harvard-educated Union military surgeon Augustus C. Hamlin. Accompanied by his history of the battle, for which he prepared these maps. This battle is one of the most important of the Civil War considered the high-water mark for Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia.The Battle of Chancellorsville (May 1-3, 1863) was one of the most important battles of the Civil War and a significant Confederate victory made all the more impressive by the fact that Robert E. Lee was outnumbered by a ratio of two to one. Although the battle proved a significant morale boost for the Confederacy, it was also the scene of a great tragedy: General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson, in his finest hour of command, was mortally wounded by friendly fire. For the Union, it was yet another humiliating defeat in a string of failed attempts to capture the Confederate capital at Richmond, Virginia. The Union defeat would embolden Lee to make a daring invasion of Pennsylvania resulting in the climactic Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863.After two years of failed attempts to capture Richmond, Lincoln sought a new commander for the Army of the Potomac to replace Ambrose Burnside who had resigned following the humiliating Union defeat at Fredericksburg in December 1862. General Joseph Hooker, who enjoyed a reputation as an aggressive commander in subordinate roles, was chosen as the Army's new commander and set about what appeared to be a much superior plan of attack than those attempted by his predecessors. Taking advantage of a nearly two to one numerical superiority, Hooker proposed to send 10,000 cavalrymen around Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, then encamped around Fredericksburg, to disrupt his supply lines in his rear. Meanwhile, hoping to avoid the mass casualties incurred from mass frontal assaults at Antietam and Fredericksburg, Hooker chose to attempt a flank attack on Lee's main army by stationing two corps along the Rappahannock River opposite the Confederate stronghold at Fredericksburg, while he led the balance of his forces westward and then south to the village of Chancellorsville, located several miles to the west of Fredericksburg, in an attempt to attack Lee's rear.Lee quickly realized the nature of Hooker's stratagem and moved to meet Hooker's forces near Chancellorsville. On the second day of the battle, Lee, who commanded only 60,000 men, took the risky decision to divide his forces. While Lee personally commanded several brigades to hold Hooker's forces in check at Chancellorsville, he ordered Stonewall Jackson to take 28,000 men on a daring trek through the wilderness to mount a surprise attack on Hooker's right flank. Amazingly, despite observation balloons and what should have been obvious signs of a mass movement of soldiers, Jackson's maneuver went completely undetected. In the late afternoon of May 2, Jackson's men took the Union XI Corps, many of whom were eating dinner, by complete surprise and quickly overran their positions. Cornered at Chancellorsville, Hooker had little choice but to withdraw his forces, or risk encirclement, which he accomplished over the next two days.The large map, on oilcloth, is untitled but depicts the situation at the Battle of Chancellorsville as "Stonewall" Jackson began his famous and daring surprise attack on the Union right flank, at about 5 P.M. on May 2, 1863. At the far left, Jackson's forces, have formed a broad line perpendicular to the unprepared XI Corps who were stationed along the Orange Turnpike in preparation for their sweeping advance. Hamlin has identified some of the Confederate commanders present by last name including A. P. Hill, Raleigh Colston, Elisha Paxton, and Robert E. Lee's nephew, Fitzhugh Lee. The author also notes the two divisions commanded personally by Robert E. Lee: Major Generals Richard H. Anderson, and Lafayette McLaws. Union generals identified on the map include George Meade, Adolph Von Steinwher, David B. Birney, Hiram Berry, and Francis C. Barlow. In the vicinity of the major action on the Union right flank, Hamlin has identified the regiments that composed the XI Corps.The second map depicts the aftermath of Jackson's attack that afternoon, illustrating the Union retreat before the Confederate onslaught. Hamlin notes the presence of "Jackson[']s Corps" at the top left and illustrates the successive lines commanded by generals Thomas, Rodes, Pender, and Colston. At the bottom left, Hamlin notes that "Thomas came in position with Pender at 11 P.M. Archer did not arrive until 2 A.M." He also notes that Francis C. "Barlow arrived at Hazel Grove at 12. M." as the Union consolidated its defensive position around Chancellorsville where we find the "11th Corps reforming" after their retreat before Jackson's advance. These maps are offered together with the book in which later versions of these maps are included: Hamlin's The Battle of Chancellorsville: The Attack of Stonewall Jackson and his Army upon the Right Flank of the Army of the Potomac at Chancellorsville, Virginia, on Saturday Afternoon, May 2, 1863, with nine color maps. The maps were prepared by Augus.

    Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good binding. Octavo. xviii, 550, 32 (ads); [8], 641 pp., frontis, port, maps. First edition. In publisher's red cloth; all portraits and maps are present. Some conservation work has been performed, including mending all the inner hinges, discreetly lining the joints and backstrips from behind and mending all the inner hinges so that these volumes are quite strong despite the conservation work being very subtle; spines sunned; light soiling to the covers; contents are intermittently foxed. This copy belonged to Confederate General William H. Payne and has his name in ink on both half-title and his name stamp on both title pages. Additionally, under Payne's inked name on the half titles is a pencil name of Harry F. Payne, surely General Payne's son. This set is from the library maintained by the Hunton family and the pencil underlining, marginal bracketing, and marginalia is believed to be that of Eppa Hunton IV, Payne's grandson. Nevins notes that Henderson's "well-done study" was issued in no fewer than 18 editions. And that "while not achieving impartiality on Jackson, Henderson viewed the war with a detached objectivity" CWB II, 62. Robert Krick writes of this, "Colonel Henderson's ground-breaking biography strides through Jackson's life with an unapologetically military approach. The author's extensive correspondence with surviving members of his subject's staff, and with other Confederate veterans, buttresses his narrative and his conclusions" In Taller Cotton 106. While frequently reprinted, the first London edition is uncommon, all the more so with such a notable association. Howes H-408 "aa".

  • THOMAS J. "STONEWALL" JACKSON (1824-1863). A brilliant Confederate general, Jackson graduated from West Point and served in the Mexican War. He taught at the Virginia Military Institute, then joined the Confederacy when the Civil War broke out. He fought at both Bull Runs, Antietam and Fredericksburg, and devised the Shenandoah Valley campaigns. He was accidentally shot by his own troops after his brilliant victory at Chancellorsville. Contemporary copy. 1 pg. 8"x 4". September 2, 1862. Headquarters, Valley District. A contemporary copy of an original autograph letter signed "By order of Maj Genl Jackson, J.G. Morrison A.D.C." to "Genl Early": "General, General Jackson directs that you order forward immediately your commissary wagons & cattle, and cook three days rations, commencing with tomorrow, and have them put in the men's haversacks. He also directs that you supply your command with ammunition, and have everything in readiness for action by dawn tomorrow". Though not written in Jackson's hand, this letter was written by Joseph G. Morrison, his brother-in-law and aide-de-camp. It reveals Jackson's military mindset, to constantly keep moving and to be on the attack. This letter was written just days after Second Manassas, a clear Confederate victory that pushed the Union Army back towards Washington. However, rather than rest, Jackson immediately started to move. By the end of September, he had captured Harper's Ferry and oved into Maryland, a movement that would culminate in Antietam. The letter is written in pencil and is easy to read.

Jackson (Stonewall Jackson) by Robert Lewis Dabney is a detailed biography of the Confederate General, enriched with firsthand accounts and primary documents provided by Jackson s family and the Confederate government. Dabney, who served on Jackson s staff and knew him personally, highlights Jackson s Christian character and his military strategies, presenting him as a heroic figure undiminished by the Southern loss in the Civil War. The book offers an authoritative look at Jackson s life, aiming to portray a sympathetic view of the Southern cause through the lens of Jackson s experiences. It retains a polemical tone, defending the principles upheld by the Confederacy, and stands as a resource for understanding this figure and the era from a Southern perspective.

    Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 1866 Stonewall Jackson 1ed Life & Campaigns of Confederate General CIVIL WAR CSA Life and Campaigns of Lieut.-Gen. Thomas J. Jackson (Stonewall Jackson) by Robert Lewis Dabney is a detailed biography of the Confederate General, enriched with firsthand accounts and primary documents provided by Jackson s family and the Confederate government. Dabney, who served on Jackson s staff and knew him personally, highlights Jackson s Christian character and his military strategies, presenting him as a heroic figure undiminished by the Southern loss in the Civil War. The book offers an authoritative look at Jackson s life, aiming to portray a sympathetic view of the Southern cause through the lens of Jackson s experiences. It retains a polemical tone, defending the principles upheld by the Confederacy, and stands as a resource for understanding this figure and the era from a Southern perspective. This first edition includes 12 diagrams of battlefields and a steel-engraved portrait of Jackson. Item number: #41625 Price: $499 DABNEY, R.L. Life and Campaigns of Lieut.-Gen. Thomas J.
