Best Answer

Lee once said of Jackson, " It never was that we had to go into great detail on his part in a coming battle, as straight as an arrow to the pole he goes about his business, and has never failed me." Lee and Jackson had the utmost confidence in each other, Jackson called Lee "a phenomenon". Lee used Jackson as his "hammer", and the stalwart Longstreet as the "anvil."
