July 4, 1863, was a glorious day for the Union cause, with the surrender of Vicksburg and the retreat of General Lee's Army after a crushing defeat at Gettysburg. In interweaving the narratives of these two storied battles, Schultz presents a compelling blow-by-blow account of one of the most pivotal points of the Civil War. 8 illustrations.
