Stonewall Rebel Yell?

[Cavalry Charger]

I checked it out from our local library, and it was a slow read but did learn a few things I didn't know before I read it, so anytime I can do that I'm HAPPY. The title brought me back to why it was named that.

Enjoyed the video How did the Union side counter the "Rebel Yell?" What were their methods of striking fear into the enemy?

There are those who say that if one studies the method that Jackson used his troops, is very similar to the way in which Joshua and David operated against supperior forces.What made Jackson's religion was that he never accepted victory as his but did give it to the Highter power,thereby he did not make himself to the one responsible for the success of the army.Pride and arrogance were avoided in doing this.Remember that he warned the South of placing to much pride in the successes that the army was achieving.With a arroganent spirit one will not be able to understand or deal with adversity.This is what happen in the latter days of the war.We looked for another Jackson,Only if Jackson was there!It was his reglion that saw Jackson thought difficult times and it was this same that made him .That is why Dabney spent time on his reglious outlook.

Oh I know I get it. Just meant I felt it was written in a way where he would describe a personal opinion and be like that's how Jackson felt too. I understand that religion was a huge part of who Jackson was. It's one of the many reasons I have so much respect for the man. I still enjoyed Dabneys book. Both are good books.

It's always tempting to project our own stuff onto our heroes. (I try to guard against doing that with )
