Anyway, thanks for acknowledging that the South did indeed invade the North. That’s all I maintained. For all of the Souths’ shortcomings, they wouldn’t have come up short if they had been able to gain recognition as legitimate by France and England. A victory at Gettysburg would have earned them this recognition. Remember, War is bloody Politics, Politics is bloodless War.

There was never any chance of Gen. Lee marching into NYC. Ever. Wasn’t possible.
