The Battle of Fredericksburg (December 11-15, 1862) was one of the most one-sided battles of the American Civil War. The Confederate forces under Robert E. Lee successfully stopped the advance of Ambrose Burnside's "Army of the Potomac", which planned to capture the Confederate capital at Richmond. Due to various strategic errors by the Union, Lee's entrenched forces prevailed. Union casualties were more than twice those of the South, at nearly 1300 killed and 9600 wounded. After reinforcements were obtained, General Burnside again tried to reach Richmond via Fredericksburg in January, 1863, but was stopped by swampy road conditions. Shortly thereafter, he was relieved of command.
