On September 17th, 1862, US President Abraham Lincoln got the great victory he had desired ever since the outbreak of the American Civil War over a year before. Declaring victory would give him the political breathing space he needed to do something that he had been pondering for some time—freeing the slaves.
The great victory Lincoln wanted took place near Antietam Creek in Maryland, near the town of Sharpsburg. The Union called it “The Battle of Antietam,” and the Confederacy referred to it as “The Battle of Sharpsburg.” It is known by both today, but “Antietam” is the more common usage.
