- The battle of Spotsylvania Courthouse was part of thw Wilderness
- campaign, a series of confused fights in difficult terrain of
- trees, swamps, and underbrush.
-
- Lee's forces under General Ewell have taken up a defensive
- position along semicircular entrenchments of the "Mule Shoe"
- salient. Grant has decided to attack the apex of the salient, a
- point of weakness, with concentrated forces of the 2nd Corps under
- Hancock. These troops will quickly punch a hole in A.P. Hill's
- lines.
-
- To the east, forces under the inept Burnside will have more
- difficulty. Gordon will provide some relief for the Rebels as he
- counterattacks. Battle will rage along the western leg of the
- Confederate position, the infamous "Bloody Angle", as the
- engagement turns to a confusing mess of jumbled troops fighting in
- close quarters. The objective is at the base of the salient, where
- Lee must struggle to put together a new defensive line to keep his
- Army of Northern Virginia from collapse.
