Event Details

Noted mainly as the General leading the Union forces at Gettysburg, he was appointed to command the Army of the Potomac just three days before the battle and arrived on the battlefield after the first action on July 1, 1863. He organized his forces on favorable ground to fight an effective defensive battle against Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia and repelled a series of massive assaults throughout the next two days. However, what is mainly overlooked is his extensive military career including the battles of Antietam and Chancellorsville – and this only part of the extensive two-part lecture.
