High tide of the confederacy. 1863, the turning point in the war
Description
The Union's victories at Gettysburg and Vicksburg marked a crucial turning point in the Civil War. This program thoroughly examines those pivotal campaigns, along with the Battles of Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville, the effects of the Emancipation Proclamation on both the North and South, problems within the Jefferson Davis administration, the beginnings of dissent in the South, and the treatment of prisoners of war on both sides. Commentary by James Robertson, Burke Davis, William Davis, Herman Hattaway, Grady McWhiney, and Bertram Wyatt-Brown is featured.
