8 After the start of war, Lincoln began using powers never-before used by another president. He suspended the Constitutional writ of habeas corpus. Writ of Habeas Corpus - is a court order to a person or agency holding someone in custody to deliver the imprisoned individual to the court issuing the order for a trial. Under this writ, persons charged with a crime are guaranteed the right to be brought before a judge and told of the crimes against them. During the Civil War, Lincoln imprisoned thousands of Confederate supporters without trial denying them their basic civil liberties as outlined in the Bill of Rights. Many felt as though Lincoln, using Executive Action, had ignored the powers given to him by the Constitution
9 Commander of the Army of Northern Virginia who would become commander of the all Confederate forces. Formerly served in the United States Army and commanded troops that captured John Brown in Harper s Ferry Seen as one of the brightest and best in the field of military expertise. His leadership was largely responsible for giving outnumbered Confederate forces a chance of victory.
10 Location: Manassas, Virginia July 1861 First battle of the Civil War No uniform regulations for the battle (led to confusion) Development of the Confederate Battle Flag Developed to avoid confusion with US flag Flag was a symbol of the Confederate Army Spectators from Washington showed up to watch the battle Overwhelming Confederate victory Proved this would not be a quick war
11 Location: Pittsburg Landing, Tennessee April 1862 One of the bloodiest battles in the western theater 23,000 casualties in 2 days Showed how deadly & bloody the Civil War would become Confederate General Albert S. Johnston killed (among best generals in South) Union victory
12 Location: Sharpsburg, Maryland September 1862 First major battle on Northern soil Single bloodiest day in US history; over 26,000 troops killed, wounded or missing Battle ended in a draw, Union claimed victory
13 At Antietam Union forces successfully prevented a Southern invasion. Lincoln saw this victory as an opportunity to issue his Emancipation Proclamation in January The Proclamation freed only slaves in the Confederacy. There were still slaves in the border states Set a moral course for the war. No longer was the war about saving the Union, now it would be about ending slavery to save the Union In addition it ensured that no European country would interfere in the war Britain had been weighing its options and giving financial and logistical support to the Confederacy France had also shown some interest in maintaining relations with the Confederacy
14 "That on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixtythree, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free. Abraham Lincoln The Emancipation Proclamation, January 1863
15 Location: Chancellorsville, Virginia May 1863 Considered Robert E. Lee s greatest tainted victory Proved that the Union would have to rethink its war strategy Confederate victory, tainted by the loss of Stonewall Jackson
16 Thomas J. Stonewall Jackson famous Confederate general; second only to Robert E. Lee Received the nickname Stonewall for his tactics at the Battle of 1 st Bull Run that led to a Confederate victory In the eyes of the Union Army, Lee and Jackson were an unbeatable team (no Union Army had been victorious against them) May 1863 Battle of Chancellorsville; Jackson is suffers and accidental wound by friendly fire and dies from complications days later He has lost his left arm, but I have lost my right. R.E. Lee His death is seen as a strategic setback and moral defeat to the Confederacy.

18 Location: Gettysburg, Pennsylvania July 1863 Confederate Army led by Robert E. Lee, Gettysburg was the final attempt of the South to invade the North. Seen as the war s major turning point; Lee s forces would retreat allowing the North to regain control of the war. After this battle the North began to win, the South began to lose. 3 days of fighting led to over 58,000 troops killed, wounded or missing (bloodiest battle in US history) Union victory
19 In remembrance of fallen Union soldiers, Lincoln issued his famous Gettysburg Address in November Address - a formal speech given to an audience His speech was given at a dedication of a cemetery on the battlefields of Gettysburg. Considered one of the most important speeches in US history as Lincoln still urged a preservation of the Union.
20 Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address, November 1863
21 Location: Vicksburg, Mississippi Summer 1863, Vicksburg fell to Union forces on July 4, 1863 Union forces led by Ulysses S. Grant Union victory gave the North control of the Mississippi River Seen as second major turning point in the war It also cut the Confederacy in two.
22 In Spring 1864, Lincoln promotes Ulysses S. Grant to head of all Union forces. Under Grant s command, the Union forces would spend the next year gradually overwhelming Confederate forces. The Civil War would now become a war of attrition.
23 Location: Atlanta, Georgia and through northern Georgia May 7-September 2, 1864 Battle of Atlanta- July 22, 1864 Atlanta was the supply center (the heart) of the Confederacy If Atlanta fell the entire South would follow soon after The Union capture of Atlanta would secure Lincoln s reelection in 1864 and prove the Union could win the war Union victory
24 ATLANTA, GEORGIA FALL 1864 Near Underground Atlanta Near Atlantic Station Near Georgia Tech Campus
25 General who served under Grant in the Union Army After the Battle of Atlanta in summer 1864, Sherman led Union forces on a scorched-earth campaign called The March to the Sea. Union troops burned all lands and destroyed Confederate infrastructure from Atlanta to Savannah. Sherman s armies captured Savannah on December 22, 1864 On Christmas Day 1864 Sherman presented Savannah, GA as a Christmas gift to Abraham Lincoln Sherman s actions effectively ended the Confederacy s attempt at victory.
26 REPUBLICAN: Abraham Lincoln DEMOCRATIC: George McClellan
27 Leading up to the election McClellan was a heavy favorite but the fall of Atlanta secured a victory for Lincoln Proved that the war could indeed be won His 2 nd Inaugural Address, given in March 1865, was Lincoln s attempt at reconciling with an almost defeated South. Inaugural address - a speech given by a president at the beginning of his tern which informs the people of his intentions as a leader Lincoln wanted to bring all the Confederate states states back into the Union and begin the process of forgiveness and healing.
28 With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan -- to do all which may achieve and cherish a just, and a lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations. Abraham Lincoln, 2 nd Inaugural Address March 1864
29 April 9, 1865 Robert E. Lee surrenders to Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House in Virginia. The peace treaty was signed in the parlor room of Wilmer McLean (the same man who owned the farm that was the site of 1 st Bull Run/Manassas) The American Civil War is OVER Over 670,000 Americans died as a result of the Civil War The Confederacy was disbanded and the South was left in financial and physical ruin.

31 April 14, 1865 Five days after Lee s surrender, Abraham Lincoln is killed by John Wilkes Booth while attending a play at Ford s Theater in Washington, D.C.
