a man of god with a desire for peace and a mind for war. but behind every misfit stands a man, and behind every legend lies the truth. >> thomas "stonewall" jackson is one of the civil war's most intriguing generals -- an eccentric, deeply religious man, uncomfortable in social settings but at home in the heat of battle. known for his rigid, inflexible temperament, some psychologists actually suggest that jackson struggles with autism, and yet his military brilliance makes him general lee's most gifted tactical commander. his peculiarities may make him an outsider in the civilian world, but in the war that nearly destroys america, stonewall jackson becomes a confederate hero and military legend. >> general? general?

stonewall jackson is a slave-holding virginian. and as a protestant christian, he believes it's his god-given duty to evangelize those he considers inferior. and jackson violates virginia law to fulfill his calling, opening up a sunday school just for slaves. the compassion he extends is not unique, even in the south, and though it seems protective and caring, it is still rooted in the same racial prejudice that's practiced by violent slave masters. no matter the treatment, jackson simply believes that african-americans are better off as slaves. >> though the narrow victory at antietam gives lincoln the opportunity to announce the emancipation proclamation, he's now under intense political pressure to crush the rebellion. but his army is still under the command of george mcclellan.
