Best Answer

Brilliant Confederate victory by Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson in May 1863, before the latter's mortal wounding by his own side (possibly deliberate).

It was Lee's last great triumph. He managed to wrong-foot the otherwise successful Union General Joe Hooker, who was replaced. But he would soon be defeated at Gettysburg.
