Today in 1861: The Battle of Bull Run, the first major clash in the Civil War, is fought, ending in Confederate victory.
Bull Run shattered illusions that either side would win quickly or easily.
Attacking in the morning, Union forces first seemed to be winning, but the Confederates checked their advance. Confederate general Thomas Jackson earned the nickname "Stonewall" for his stout defensive stance.
Late in the day, the Confederates counterattacked. Weary Union troops retreated, then panicked and fled helter-skelter back to Washington.
