The major battle of the US Civil War was the Battle of Gettysburg. It was a three day battle at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. General Meade's Army of the Potomac forces Lee to retreat back to Virginia.
As the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg came closer, General Lee was hampered by the fact he was not sure of the enemy's position. Lee had an idea that the battle would be near the small town of Gettysburg, however, he lacked specific information he deemed critical. Many will be surprised that the problem here was JEB Stuart's failure to provide Lee with solid reconnaissance information and was unable to move to General Meade's supplies and cause damage.On this basis alone, Lee had marched into Pennsylvania "half blind".

Gettysburg was the site of the most famous battle of the US Civil War. General Lee of the Confederacy wanted Northerners to know that the Civil War was not only going to be fought onSouthern soil. On June 16, 1863,Lee led the Army of Northern Virginia across the Potomac River with the intent of reaching Harrisburg, Pa. the capital of Pennsylvania. It was a pure accident that the Union and Confederate armies would fight at Gettysburg. Lee had forced Union general Meade to Gettysburg. On July2, 1863 the battle was engaged. Each side had heavy losses however in the end the Union forces prevailed and Lee was forced to retreat back to Virginia.
General Lee played no part in the Seige of Vicksburg. The Confederate commander was Pendleton. General Lee was 900 miles away in Pennsylvania fighting at Gettysburg.
