Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Stonewall Comment: This is a man for had he not been killed by friendly fire the South would have gained in independence.Now i an not saying the south could have beaten the north Military but by 1864 the north was tired of loosing men and material to a war that was at the time going nowhere.This is a man in the spring of 1962 defeated three union army's a number of about 80,000 thousand men. Jackson with a force of men that never numbered more than 17,000 cleared them out of the Shenandoah Vally in one month.Had he been at Gettysburg There would have been no way that he would not attacked cemetery hill and had it in the the south's hands before darkness.With the high ground now in the south's hands the union army would have no choice but to retreat.Who is to say after that what would have happened.I no what every body will say it didn't happen,and they are right.
