may 18, 1863 - Siege of Vicksburg

Description:

This was an attack by the North on a southern-owned town. They cut off Vicksburg from outside sources and surrounded them until the people inside surrendered. This was one of the last major attacks, and owning Vicksburg was like a trump card to victory.
