What were two major assumptions made by Confederate General Robert E Lee on the eve of the Battle of Antietam?
General Robert E. Lee made two important assumptions as the Battle of Antietam was about to unfold in September of 1862. One such assumption was that troops led by General Stonewall Jackson would arrive from Harper's Ferry sooner than they did. Jackson's late arrival to join Lee potentially allowed for Lee to be attacked by Union General George B. McClellan's army with a two to one troop advantage. The second assumption of Lee that McClellan would delay his attack was true.
