Documents and Debates: Don’t Forget About Vicksburg

Subscribe to The American IdeaSubscribe

Jeff discusses the important and often overlooked Battle of Vicksburg, which came an end on 4 July 1863. Overshadowed by Gettysburg, this battle was arguably of far greater strategic importance than its more famous cousin, which took place at the same time. Learn about the military and political history and details of this event as we mark the 160th anniversary of the commencement of Grant's campaign for the Confederate city.
