Where was the major battle that was won by the North in July 1863?

The main battle of the US Civil War that took place in July of 1863 was at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. It, in fact, was the largest battle in the war, and the Union had clearly defeated the Army of Northern Virginia under Robert E. Lee. Sadly for the winning Union general, General Meade, he was not given his due recognition for the battle. President Lincoln admonished Meade for allowing Lee's army to escape to Virginia.

How Vicksburg and Gettysburg changed the course of the course of the war?

Grant's capture of Vicksburg ended Phase Two of Scott's Anaconda Plan, completing the blockade of the Southern states, preventing the movement of troops and supplies from Texas and Arkansas to the rest of the Confederate states to the East of the Mississippi, placing a choke hold the supplies to the active armies. Within less than two years, the blockade would bring the seceding states to their knees. Though he defeated Lee tactically, Gettysburg represents a lost opportunity for Meade to pursue and destroy Lee's army before it could reach the safety of Virginia, but it did place Lee on a permanent defensive for the rest of the war.
