the Battle of Gettysburg

"Upon my shoulders rests the blame...it has all been my fault." --General Robert E. Lee

Fresh off a decisive victory at Chancellorsville, Robert E Lee marched his army north to cross the Potomac as he had the year before. The Federal army followed quickly behind, screening Washington and Baltimore. But on the eve of battle, Hooker was replaced by a fresh commander-in-chief, grizzled veteran George Meade. As the armies drew closer together, all roads led to a small town called Gettysburg.
