Battle of Gettysburg Anniversary (1863)-- The Battle of Gettysburg was fought July 1–3, 1863, in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, by Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War. This battle resulted in the largest number of casualties of the entire war and is often regarded as the war's turning point. Union Maj. Gen. George Meade's Army of the Potomac defeated attacks by Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, halting Lee's invasion of the North.
Read: Gettysburg: The Story of the Battle with Maps
-- 70 color maps and insightful text tell the hour-by-hour story of the 3-day Battle of Gettysburg. Each map shows the same 3 1/2-by-4 1/2-mile view of the battlefield, allowing the reader to visualize the battle as it developed over the entire area, including key engagements, troop movements and positions, and locations of commanders. Sheds new light on important events such as the first clash west of town on July 1, the fighting for Cemetery Hill, the defense of Little Round Top, Pickett's Charge, and more. An ideal introduction for newcomers, while the unique approach offers fresh perspectives for those who've read every book on the battle. A perfect companion for battlefield visits and armchair-general debates.
Flanks of Gettysburg-- In the Summer of 1863, General Robert E. Lee led the spirited Army of Northern Virginia, flush with success from the previous year, north into Pennsylvania. There, on July 1st, the vanguard of his 71,000 men met and defeated a smaller Union holding force outside of the small crossroads town of Gettysburg. As night fell, both sides were reinforced, and Lee made plans to attack a variety of points along the Union fishhook defensive positions. The two assaults that held the most promise concerned the high ground on either side of the Federal Line..
Union Army Wool Hat-- The Kepi cap of the Union Army is a great alternative to a cowboy hat. This style of Civil War hat is the most commonly seen and was worn by soldiers and cowboys for a long time, even after the Civil War was over. This replica Civil War cap is made of wool and has a very authentic look. Great for reenactments, collectors, and Civil War enthusiasts.
