Third in the series of Civil War campaign brochures commemorating our national sacrifices during the American Civil War, The Gettysburg Campaign, June-July 1863 describes the turning point in the "Battle Between the States." Authors Carol Reardon and Tom Vossler examine the operations that culminated in the pivotal and devastating three-day Battle of Gettysburg, pitting the Union Army of the Potomac under Maj. Gen. George G. Meade against the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia under General Robert E. Lee.
Part of "The U.S. Army Campaigns of the Civil War" series by the Army Center of Military History, this brochure includes seven maps and seventeen illustrations.
Readers interested in the Gettysburg campaign may also want to read the Gettysburg National Military Park National Park handbook by the National Park Service.
