Stuart screwed the Confederacy. Lee makes a few different decisions on day 1 and South wins the battle.
Lee screwed the confederacy by going into Gettysburg I still think he should have stayed defensive but I understand his reasoning for not. He needed the big punch with the naval blockade and citizens and troops lacking food and supplies. Would be hard to keep stretching the war out for a decade and the southerners holding morale. He had no chance imo at Gettysburg and was told that numerous times. I still think he was a damn good commander, even though some here on TD disagree

Saying all that above, Rolltide does a good job with his threads on the intro. I just disagree with his opinions

Lee was a brilliant commander and if he stays with the union war is over quickly. However, I think he overestimated his men and had a bit of a big head at Gettysburg.
Eta they missed Jackson big time at Gettysburg as well
