 Hi Rebalgray and everyone else on the site. 

I too am new, however I am a Brit! My interest in the CW is that I am studing late 1862 to mid 1863 for an exam. 

I am trying to get inside General Robert E Lee's head and work out why he stayed at Fredericksburg after the battle, what did he hope to gain apart from rest and recouperation for his army.

Does anyone out there have an opinion or any knowledgable reason or can you direct me somewhere where I can get an answer.
