Stonewall Jackson Bowie Knife

Thomas Jackson was one of the Confederacy’s greatest fighters and General Lee’s right-hand-man. Jackson earned the nickname "Stonewall" at the Battle of First Manassas on July 21, 1861, when a Confederate general took notice of his defiant stand against a Union advance and exclaimed, "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall." A string of rousing victories and a proven ability to move his men quickly made Jackson a champion in the Confederacy. At the Battle of Chancellorsville in May of 1863, Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson was mistakenly shot by Confederate soldiers and later died of complications. His death marked a turning point in the war. Without his most trusted commander, General Lee’s forces were overwhelmed at Gettysburg and the South eventually surrendered at Appomattox in 1865.
