General Robert E. Lee, eager to move the fighting north, advanced into Pennsylvania in June of 1863. After suffering heavy losses over the three day battle, Lee retreated back to Virginia. Another example of an indecisive victory strategy-wise, Gettysburg was a great morale booster for the North. In November, President Lincoln traveled from Washington and issued the Gettysburg Address.
