In the Battle of Chancellorsville in the American Civil War, the Union army was defeated through a combination of primarily two factors. The first factor was the timidity of the Union general, who repeatedly over-estimated the striking capacity of the smaller Confederate Army facing his units. The second was the boldness of the Confederate General, Robert E. Lee, who cunningly took the fight to the enemy despite its greater size.
