jul 3, 1863 - CIVIL WAR #7: Battle Of Gettysburg

Description:

Gettysburg is the turning point of the war. After his successes at Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville, Lee invaded the North again. After trying to break the Union lines for two days, he tries a frontal assault on the entrenched Union forces. “Pickett’s Charge” (as this is known) fails and Lee retreats back to Virginia. The South would never again have a chance to win the war or threaten the North.
