Trying to invade Pennsylvania in July 1863 - according to Longstreet, one of the Generals blamed for the defeat at Gettysburg.

Otherwise his strategies and tactics were very sound.

His basic mistake was to throw in his lot with the Confederates in the first place. If he'd stayed in the U.S.Army, the war would not have lasted long.
