Today, it's mostly forgotten that 4,000 Americans died, and another 15,000 were wounded in a single day on U.S. soil 150 years ago.
That was, and remains, the bloodiest day in U.S. history, and it is being remembered in the Maryland countryside west of Washington, D.C., near a sleepy little town called Sharpsburg.
There, on September 17th, 1862, as many as 100,000 Yankee northerners and Rebel southerners, fighting a great civil war, collided on pastureland next to a tiny stream called Antietam Creek in an epic 12-hour battle.
General Robert E. Lee, commanding the Confederate southern armies, had won victory after victory, but on his own soil in Virginia. He needed a triumph in northern territory that would persuade France and England to endorse the breakaway Confederacy and provide it with arms to win the war.上周的9月11日,世界各地的人们生动地追忆起11年前,外国恐怖分子驾驶着劫持来的飞机杀害了将近3000美国人以及他国人民的那天。
如今,人们几乎遗忘了150年前的某天,在美国境内有4000民众死亡以及15000人受伤。
这曾是,如今依然是美国历史上最血腥的一天,人们铭记着华盛顿特区西部的马里兰州农村,一个名叫夏普斯小镇堡的寂静小镇附近。
1862年9月17日,在那里有多达10万名北方扬基人和南方叛军打了一场伟大的内战,双方在一条名为安蒂特姆的小溪边的牧场上交锋,进行了长达12小时,史诗般的战斗。
指挥南方联盟军的罗伯特.E.李将军在弗吉尼亚州内自家领地赢得一场又一场的胜利。他需要在北方领地取得一个胜利,以此说服法国和英国支持脱离的联盟军并提供武器以赢得战争。
