"Antietam National Battlefield Maryland" by Frederick Herman Tilberg delves into the pivotal battle of Antietam, fought on September 17, 1862, marking the bloodiest day of the American Civil War. This conflict not only halted Confederate General Lee’s invasion of the North but also set the stage for President Abraham Lincoln's issuance of The Emancipation Proclamation, which aimed to free slaves in rebellious states. The book, part of the U.S. National Park Service's Historical Handbook series, offers valuable insights into troop movements and the strategies employed during the battle.
