"In the aftermath of the Union victory on Matthews Hill during the morning phase of the battle, Confederate reinforcements begin to arrive to the south on Henry House Hill at about noon, where they start to consolidate their thinly-stretched line under the command of newly-arrived Brigadier General Thomas J. Jackson with his First (Virginia) Brigade. With Union victory seemingly within reach, it is up to Jackson and his Virginians to hold the line long enough for Brigadier Generals Beauregard and Johnston to bring up reinforcements and possibly snatch victory from the jaws of defeat."

With part 3 of First Manassas coming out, we will be getting back to our schedule and will be starting on the Peninsula Campaign with the Battle of Hampton Roads!
I’m totally looking forward to seeing the Battle of Hampton roads and the fighting on the Virginia peninsula
I like how you've highlighted the units by uniform color.
It does a great job of showing what a confusing mess this (and many other battles) was.
Same
Just imagine going to eat and watch a battle
It was usual in the epoch. In the Crimean war townsfolk from Sevastopol went out and camped to where the russians were defending against the english and french (in the very first engagement). When the english won they discovered a bunch of empty pillows and coffee tables from where the wealthy russians were watching
@@neymarmessironaldo5881 I know it’s just strange though lol
Damn, this Sherman fellow really screwed the pooch.
Well, we won't be seeing him again.
Quite a shameful showing by Colonel Sherman, there is no way he is going to get another post after this debacle.
Dang. I must watch this again.
The big takeaway I got from your presentation is that McDowell and the other Union generals wasted a HUGE amount of time both before and after taking Matthew's Hill. Had the Rhode Islanders been reinforced promptly, the Union forces might have pushed the Confederate forces back to Henry House Hill well before 11:00. Even after taking Matthew's Hill around 11:25, it seems that McDowell and Co. wasted over 2 hours to start fighting the Confederates at Henry House Hill. After all, one of Napoleon's sayings (someone these guys were all trying to emulate) was, "You can ask me for anything you like, except time."
Dude, it's more representative than Wikipedia and other sources that i've read about Manassa's Battle. I got goosebumps with the Stonewall Jackson nickname's birth. Congratulations
Glad to hear that Emiliano!
Just found your channel... doing a christmas binge!! Thank you! ill be keeping my eye out for my Vermont Boys!
They'll be showing up soon enough!
Awesome videos. This is the type of detailed video that I was looking for. Keep doing them. There are people like me who love this type of content.
Very impressive work and the best description of Bull Run I've ever seen! Great use of map animation, unit description (including uniform color) and the inclusion of human interest stories. Looking forward to viewing the rest of the Civil War series!
Excellent work, as always. I foresee the next great Civil War Historian. ~Wes
Thanks Wes!
No hate, but it's pronounced "rem-nants"
„Remember all those problems we‘ve been having in the Middle East?“
„Yes. Those damn Virginians!“
Congratulations! A superb balance between providing enough detail so you understand the intricacies of the battle and yet maintaing an overview so you don't get lost in too much detail.
Ricketts and Griffin had rifled guns which were effective at long distance but not good for close up fire. Jackson's guns were all smoothbores, much more effective at close distances as they can fire canister.
Not canister but round shot instead, smoothbore cannons were used at much closer range that their rifled counterparts so they had the combat advantage
@@WarhawkYT My point was that McDowell was using Napoleonic tactics that required the artillery to move up with the infantry but he had the wrong guns. Round shot is good for counter battery fire but not so much against infantry.
@@jonathansloane702 Depends. If you were able to set the guns up on the enemy flank, roundshot could do horrendous amounts of damage through enfilading fire. At close range though, canister is preferable.
@@davidbuckley2435 My original point is that McDowell had rifled guns which were the wrong guns for the work at hand. Neither of you really seems to be addressing that point.
The civilians who thought this battle was some kind of show learned different when they saw war up close!
This channel does NOT get enough love.. but I guess the american civil war is kindof a niche topic
imo it would be hard for me to believe it's niche. I can only speak for myself but this is one of only 3 wars I was taught in school. Even my mom who literally doesn't care at all for history has done some research on this war and owns a few books on it. It's one of the few wars your typical American can name (I say this as an American myself)
I agree though this channel deserves much more love
Great stuff. I'm a year late to the party, but I'll offer a suggestion: How about a sound bite when you introduce the rebel yell? I was hoping to hear it at that moment.
incredible job man this must be so hard to make and research
Thank you Micahistory!
@@WarhawkYT you're welcome
Great video again!
Supreme quality!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fantastic job making coherent, and exciting, the chaos that was the struggle for Henry House Hill. Great video, sir.
Well the Union has this no need to even watch
you changed your picture?
@@micahistory I did
Yeah they'll definitely win if nobody in particular stands against them like a stone wall on top of Henry Hill.
@@CivilWarWeekByWeek why?
@@micahistory I like it better
Another really well done video, thanks.
Very nice to see, what could happen when a few men are holding out and delay the enemy.
Wow this video is fantastic. Every line is a point. Your channel deserve more subscriber. According to my account your channel is the best channel on TH-cam I liked your channel very much. Your channel is my favourite .I liked your all videos. Please keep up this type of work in future please. Your all videos are stunning. I am your old subscriber from 500 subs
But can you please make a video on Skanderbeg? I previously commented you but I did not get any clear answer. But your videos are mind-blowing
Thank you for the kind words Kaushik, I dont think we'll ever get to Skanderbeg because I will have a horrible time trying to pronounce all those names and we're solely focusing on the American Civil war at the time being.
I know you know a good presentation when you see it, so you want more, but these are US Civil War pieces. I feel your pain.
I've just come across this series & am really impressed with the unit colour coding to match the uniform colours. i had read about the confusion but this brought home how much more how it affected the battle. However, with such a detailed visual presentation of the battlefield, I was surprised that there were no graphics to show the hills. It looked like flat fields until the narrator described them. Otherwise this is the standard for presenting a battle in detail.
fascinating. i'd always assumed that manassas was basically virginians resisting a northern invasion. but in this first major battle there were alabamians, georgians and men from louisiana. already the confederacy was a nation.
The great ska-daddle!
Wish you would have included jubal early capturing the yankee politician and berating him for coming to watch such a spectacle as war
Just saying but Interesting fact regarding the rebel yell is that it is based on the war crys made by the Scottish clans
First I heard that. If true, thanks.
@@davidweum your very welcome and it is true because there is a claim that the rebel yell is derived from the screams that were traditionally made by Scottish Highlanders when they made a battle charge during battle but it is also said that the rebel yell was partly adapted from the specialized cries used by men experienced in fox hunting but it is also said that the rebel yell has been linked to Native American cries as confederate soldiers may have imitated or learned the yell from native Americans it is also said that some Texas units mingled Comanche War Whoops into their yells
It also psychs up attackers and psychs out the enemy imo
@@davidweum i completely agree with you on that because like when Highlanders made the highland charge the enemy would run away in panic
Ya know, I love Epic History TV and History Marche's series on the Napoleonic Wars. I thought to myself, it would be awesome if someone did this for the Civil War. Pretty sure TH-cam is scanning my brain.
Anyway, well done sir! Thank you for this.
Its very similar isnt it only problem with that series is it was over too quickly
35:01 few-tiley! lol
Federal Army looks very indecisive. At the beginning of the battle, when they had a huge numerical advantage, why didn't they mobilize the entire army and just only one or two regiments were sent to the attack??
Yeah they didn’t realize how much more effective they would be if they sent the brigade in at once. Everybody was testing war out for the first time. Some in new commands with raw troops
What is up with these small channels with massive quality? Well done
Piecemeal attacks

I am surprised that this comment is the first reference to "Good Fellas."
The animations are great but the confusion felt on the battlefield could have been skipped or made less confused in the video. Is difficult to see the names on the blue fields so it's just too much to figure out and take in.
I'm binging on Civil War lectures
Just finished staining and hanging a gate with my brother. Mannasas has nothing on the battle we had!
10:08 hired slave (click)
Hey, you borrowed Epic History's background music! Nice choice!
El fin.
Ok what are the blue, grey, and Red squares. I’m confused bc I’m seeing these colors on both sides of the battle, I don’t understand who’s side anyone is on.
The colors represent the colors of the uniform that the various regiments wore during the battle. 33rd VA for an example wore blue.
6:04
Couldn´t the confederates capture Maryland after the battle? There was some sympathy for their cause and it would be a huge boost to morale...
No, Maryland would stay in union hands by force throughout the war.
@@WarhawkYT I know, but in a what if scenario? ;) at least a big raid to aquire weapons and ammunition and recruit some volunteers
@@schimmelfennig726 The Confederate Army was just as exhausted and disorganized as the Union Army was after the battle. So it would have taken awhile to organize a raid into Maryland, much less an offensive.
The Confederates couldn't forsee the possibilities of that after such a battle, IMHO.
Its insane how the U.S. didn’t have a standing army at the time it put them at such a disadvantage.
Like when Britain joined in WW1 for example they had a small, but very professional and skilled standing army which gave them an advantage in the early war(however it would of course erode as WW1 turned into giant meat grinder).
They did have one just that it was very small and majority of it was on the border with Mexico or in the west of the country fighting the indians
In addition to what the previous response says, it's also worth noting that the country wasn't even 100 years old yet and there was more state pride than national pride. People would rather join state militias than the federal army
limbers is not a word. To limber up is as action not a thing. Verb not noun. Caissons ow ever are a thing. The carry sot and powder. Each cannon has a caisson. Each cannon has two to eight horses to pull it and its caisson. The cannon is hitched to the cannon on back side and to the team of horses on the front side. In battle the horses are never un hitched form the caisson. The horses and caisson can be any where form 10 feet from the cannon to fifty feet all depending upon the battery commander needs at the time. Each horse in the battery has a handler. His job is to see to that horse anmd only that horse. If the horse if enjured in any way that it cant pull any more it is the handlers job to remove it form the team as fast as he can. A cannon can have as many as 15 men serving it. These are the gun commander, the sobber. the borer, the powder man. the round man and then the man who has the match the gunner (He lights the fuse). The other up to 9 men are the ammo carriers. They bring the power and the rounds from the Caisson to the gun.
The only cannon that had but 2 horses to draw it where Calvary gins. Little light 6lbers
These are the ones u see in the movies with horses doing more then a fast walk.
So there u have it.
Only one thing left to say to "limber up" is to hook the cannon to the caisson. To unlimber is to do the opposite unhook it form the caisson.
