Editing Stonewall Jackson (section)

===Horsemanship===
Jackson had a poor reputation as a horseman. One of his soldiers, Georgia volunteer William Andrews, wrote that Jackson was "a very ordinary looking man of medium size, his uniform badly soiled as though it had seen hard service. He wore a cap pulled down nearly to his nose and was riding a rawboned horse that did not look much like a charger, unless it would be on hay or clover. He certainly made a poor figure on a horseback, with his stirrup leather six inches too short, putting his knees nearly level with his horse's back, and his heels turned out with his toes sticking behind his horse's foreshoulder. A sorry description of our most famous general, but a correct one."<ref>Robertson, p. 499.</ref> His horse was named "Little Sorrel" (also known as "Old Sorrel"), a small [[Sorrel (horse)|chestnut]] gelding which was a captured Union horse from a Connecticut farm.<ref>Robertson, p. 230.</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Little Sorrel, Connecticut's Confederate War Horse |url=http://connecticuthistory.org/little-sorrel-connecticuts-confederate-war-horse/ |access-date=September 12, 2013 |publisher=ConnecticutHistory.org}}</ref> He rode Little Sorrel throughout the war, and was riding him when he was shot at Chancellorsville. Little Sorrel died at age 36 and is buried near a statue of Jackson on the parade grounds of VMI.
