Moments Before Pickett's Charge #history #civilwar #union #confederate #gettysburg
This animated battle map series explores the Battle of Gettysburg, fought July 1–3, 1863, and widely regarded as the turning point of the American Civil War.
Using period maps, troop movements, terrain analysis, and primary-source–based interpretations, this series breaks down the battle step by step—showing how Union and Confederate forces maneuvered across south-central Pennsylvania, why commanders made the decisions they did, and how geography shaped the fighting.
Each part of this series focuses on a specific phase of the battle, tracing unit movements, command decisions, and battlefield developments in real time. From the opening clashes west and north of town, to the fighting on Cemetery Hill, Little Round Top, the Wheatfield, and Pickett’s Charge, these animated maps are designed to help viewers visualize one of the most complex engagements of the war.
