How long was the Battle of Gettysburg?
A general timeline for the Battle of Gettysburg is as follows: On June 3, 1863, the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia moves north on its latest invasion of the North. The Union Army of the Potomac follows cautiously to the east. On July 1, 1863, leading Confederate troops, moving eastward, approach the small town of Gettysburg; there, they are initially stopped by a small force of determined Union defenders, yet by the end of the day the Confederates have pushed back the defenders and gained the town. On July 2, 1863, General Robert E. Lee, commander of the Southern force, decides to follow up the first day's victory with attacks farther south; these are repulsed by Union defenders. On July 3, 1863, General Lee again chooses to attack, this time against the center of the Union line. In what became known as Pickett's charge, the Confederates advance courageously but are thoroughly defeated. The entire Confederate army begins to retrace its steps west and south. The Union force cautiously shadows it.

What gave the Lincoln administration the very real idea that the US Civil War could be ended in 1863?
General in Chief Henry W. Halleck, President Lincoln and Secretary of War Edwin Stanton had every reason to believe that by the end of the Summer in 1863, the Rebel rebellion would be ended. Union victories at Vicksburg and at Gettysburg had placed the South on the defensive. The missing link to the end of the war was centered on Union General Rosencrans. Once he occupied Chattanooga, Tennessee unopposed, all he needed to do was defeat Confederate General Braxton Bragg's army and then Rosencrans could push his way deep into Georgia. If this was successful, few in the North could see how the South could continue the war.
