The two great victories of Gettysburg and Vicksburg, announced to a jubilant Northern public on July 4th 1863.
Gettysburg ended Lee's hopes of invading the North, both for provender and for credibility with possible foreign allies as an army of invasion.
Vicksburg liberated the Mississippi, and ended the war in the West.

Northern morale was low until several Union victories (not by Grant) saved Lincoln's reputation just in time.
