Airs Saturday, September 8 at 6pm ET on C-SPAN 3

Matt Atkinson has worked as a ranger at both the Gettysburg and Vicksburg national military parks. He compares these two 1863 campaigns as turning points in the Civil War and explores why Gettysburg looms larger in historical memory than Western theater battles such as Vicksburg. This talk was part of a symposium hosted by the “Emerging Civil War" blog.
