Chancellorsville - a brilliant tactical triumph that completely wrong-footed the Union General Joe Hooker.
But it was also the beginning of the end for Lee. His 'right arm', Stonewall Jackson, was mortally wounded in this battle, and this is given as a major cause of Lee's defeat in the next big battle, Gettysburg.
Also this was when Lee's health started to fail - possibly because of this psychological blow.
