Update 6/9/2013 1:45 P.M. CST: This drawing is wrongly attributed in many places, including Library of Congress and Wikipedia, to be of the Battle at Brandy Station. It turns out that this is highly likely a sketch made for publication in the news of the day. The woodcut derived from this image was used for the June 11, 1864 issue of Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper.
The Battle of Brandy Station, June 9, 1863 , also called the Battle of Fleetwood Hill, was the largest predominantly cavalry engagement of the American Civil War, as well as the largest to take place ever on American soil.
