Best Answer

To offer the reader some important and notable uses of the power of flank attacks, two well known battles are named here. The first one was at the first Battle of Bull Run. There a failed flank attack by Union general McDowell failed, ultimately leading to his defeat. Later in the war, Grant was finally successful against Lee by using flank attacks to force Lee out of his position at Petersburg. Between the first battle and near the last one, flank attacks became the staple of Civil War engagements.
