Second Bull Run (Manassas, Virginia) was the last of the impressive string of Confederate victories in Summer '62 by Robert E. Lee, which almost brought in Britain on the side of the South.
His next move was to invade Pennsylvania and threaten Washington D.C., but he was unexpectedly checked at Antietam (Sharpsburg, Maryland). This Nothern victory gave Lincoln the credibility to issue his Emancipation Proclamation, which turned the war into a crusade against slavery, and made it impossible for the British to intervene without looking pro-slavery.
