Antietam
17 Sep 1862 — The bloodiest single day in American history: some 23,000 casualties along a Maryland creek, and Lee’s first invasion turned back. Lincoln has the victory he has been waiting for — see the marker at Washington.
This is one scene of Chapter 6 — Antietam and Emancipation in The American Civil War, 1861–1865.
