Stonewall Jackson's Marches Shenandoah Valley Civil War Map

Front:
STONEWALL JACKSON'S MARCHES The Shenandoah Valley below was the scene of much of Confederate General Thomas Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson's activity, during the first two years of the Civil War. His swift and secret marches earned his troops the name of "foot cavalry." Jackson's Valley Campaign supplied the lean Confederacy with captured materials of war. His victories resulted in many Union troops being withheld from the first sus- tained campaign against Richmond, for the defense of Washington, D.
