The turning point of the American Civil War was actually not a battle. On July 4, 1863 the Confederate forces at Vicksburg surrendered to Union General Ulysses S. Grant following a long siege at the end of a protracted campaign. This closed the Mississippi to Southern traffic, allowing the Federal forces to strike with impunity anywhere in the Mississippi Valley, and preventing the South from receiving reinforcements and supplies from the trans-Mississippi states of Texas and Arkansas. It opened the way to Sherman's March, which eliminated the South's capacity to wage war by destroying its ability to supply its troops.
