Was Gettysburg a little town?
Whether Gettysburg was little would depend on your definition of the word. It was not tiny, neither was it even a small city. It was, and is, the county seat of Adams County, Pennsylvania, so the County Courthouse is there. There is a Lutheran Theological Seminary and also Gettysburg College, both of which were there during the battle. Even today though Gettysburg has only about 7500 citizens. There was a railroad finished just before the war linking Gettysburg and Hanover. Gettysburg's main importance at the time of the battle though was as a road hub - there were nine good roads radiating from Gettysburg like spokes on a wheel. There was a shoe factory in Gettysburg and the battle began when some Confederates went there to seize the shoes, not knowing they had already been taken a week before by a different party of the numerous throngs of soldiers beginning to crowd into the area. Gettysburg was big enough to have a grid of streets and had somewhere above two thousand residents when the battle erupted in their town.

The citizens of Gettysburg were experiencing an invasion for the first time, so there was much alarm, but the battle was lost and the troops soon departed from this prosperous farming state that did not suffer any further invasions.

What was the turning point of the civil war us?
AnswerThe Battle of Gettysburg was the turning point of the war.AnswerIt is arguable as to what was the turning point of the American Civil War. The Battle of Gettysburg certainly is among the top three. My opinion is the Battle of Antietam was the foremost turning point. Lee's failure to achieve victory here ended the Confederate hope of European intervention on their behalf. Second choice would be the fall of Vicksburg, Mississippi on July 4th 1863. This split the Confederacy in half, therefore losing the supplies available from Texas and Arkansas. Third would be Gettysburg. Hereafter Lee would be unable to carry out offensive action of this magnitude.
