What was the Underground Railroad?The underground rail road was not actually underground, but simply a small group of people who attempted to move enslaved individuals escaping from slavery to and from safe places in a quick and secretive manner. Most widespread during the three decades prior to the Civil War and primarily took place in the regions bordering slave states.

Started By Quakers Code names for places and people were used to ensure that it remained a secret. Participation was illegal Fugitive Slave Acts as early as 1793 that allowed slave catchers to come north and force runaways back into slavery

The Battle Of AntietamBy:TyQuan Bitting

Important PeopleGeneral Robert E. Lee was the general for the confederates in this battle.

The general for the Union in this battle was General George B. McClellan. Later, he became the commander of the Ohio forces in the Civil War.

Reasons For Battle Robert E. Lee wanted to keep going into the North because he felt confident when he won at the Bull Run.The more important reason is that he wanted countries in Europe, such as, England and France to help the South and the Confederates with their cause.

Reasons For Battle Bloodiest battles in Civil War history. On September 17, 1862 at dawn General Joseph Hooker fired on the left side of the Confederate army in Antietam. When the Confederate army got reinforced they gained back part of the field and this kept going back and forth. General McClellan fought General Lee along a road that was separating the Roulette and Piper farms, also known now as Bloody Lane.

End of the Antietam battleIn this battle the Union Army won. When this battle ended it changed the course of the war, now the war was not only to support the Union, it also wanted to free the slaves. The slaves were freed when Lincoln gave the Emancipation Proclamation. 23,000 soldiers died, were wounded, or missing after 12 hours of the battle.

Emancipation ProclamationOlivia Hatch

Emancipation Proclamation Lincoln finally acted on slavery because it was very unpopular in Europe.He first proposed his idea to congress in the summer of 1862, but they urged him to wait until a Union victory.After the Union victory at Antietam, he announced a formal emancipation of slaves in any state of the Confederacy that did not return to Union control by January 1, 1863. Non returned.Lincoln hoped to convince some southern states to surrender with the proclamation.

What is it? The proclamation went into affect on January 1, 1863 when no confederate states returned to the Union. Freed all enslaved people in states still in the rebellion. Did not apply to loyal border states or places already under Union control.

GettysburgMiles Morton

In July of 1863, General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia and Union Army of the Potomac, under George G. Meade, concentrated together at Gettysburg and fought the Battle of Gettysburg.

Of the more than 2,000 land engagements of the Civil War, Gettysburg ranks supreme.

The Gettysburg Addressby: Adison Gregory

About the AddressLocation: the Soldiers National Cemetery at Gettysburg Who spoke: Edward Everett (orator) & Abraham Lincoln Everett was the main speaker for the day and gave a two hour long speech. Lincoln followed and his speech lasted a little over two minutes.

About the addressLincoln conveyed the United States principles of unity and equality in the address It contained lyrical phrases and haunting imageryAt the time it was given it wasnt considered important , but today it is considered one of the best speeches in history

Quotes from the addressGovernment of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the earthBut in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract....that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom; and that this government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth

Life of a soldier by: Rico Walker

Reasons for fightingBelieved it was their duty to their countrySaw it as an opportunity to start a new lifeOther were forced to go, due to the military draft

South versus North In the south, plantation owners were among the first to volunteer for the gentlemens war, believing the conflict to last no more than a few months. The north encouraged young men to volunteer and fight in order to preserve the Union. Very few white soldiers served in the Union Army to fight slavery. Saving the Union was their first priority.

African Americans served in the Confederate Army, mostly as cooks, musicians or hospital attendants. Those who fought saw an opportunity to fight to prove they were worthy of freedom.

Daily lifeThe majority of the time was spent overcoming boredom. Days would be spent making meals, doing laundry, cutting firewood and writing letters to home. Horse racing, gambling and games such as cards and dominoes helped to relieve the boredom.

Womens rolesin the civil war

Women and the Civil WarDuring the civil war women in the North and South joined to volunteer brigades and signed up to work as nurses. It was the first time in American history that women played a significant role in a war effort. This caused an expansion in the definitions on true womanhood.

Fighting for the UnionWith the outbreak of war in 1861, not only did men eagerly volunteer to fight for the cause, but women as well. Many women wanted to take more of an active role in the war during this time, and were inspired by the work of Florence Nightingale and her nurses in the Crimean War. They fought for ways to work on the front lines to care for the sick and injured soldiers. In the Northern States: Women organized ladies aid societies to supply Union troops with items they needed (food, clothing, and cash). In the Southern States: The Confederacy had less money and fewer resources than did the Union, so they did much of their work on their own or through local auxiliaries and relief societies.

June 1861: The federal government agreed to create a preventive hygienic and sanitary service for the benefit of the army called the United States Sanitary Commission. They sought to combat preventable diseases and infections by improving conditions in army camps and hospitals. It also worked to provide relief to sick and wounded soldiers.

Women in action Working class white women and free/enslaved African-American women worked as laundresses, cooks, and matrons. Middle class white women worked as nurses.

Army nurses: traveled from hospital to hospital providing care for the wounded, sick and dying soldiers. Activist Dorothea Dix was responsible for the calling of Army nurses. Confederate spies: Sometimes they beguiled government or military officials to obtain information; other times the simply listened in on conversations in hotel lobbiesor bought the latest edition of the newspaper. Vivandires: were women often officers daughters or wives who accompanied and provided support to Union and Confederate regiments. They sold the troops tobacco, coffee, identification tags, oil lamps, hams and whiskey. Vivandires did laundry and sewing, as well as cooking.
