  • Summary

  • In the heat of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln famously proclaimed, "Vicksburg is the key."

Vicksburg, perched on a bluff overlooking the river, was an unassailable fortress in the eyes of the Confederacy - their "Gibraltar." Yet, the very strength of Vicksburg became its weakness as it drew the unerring focus of Union General Ulysses S. Grant.
