Arrrrrggggg . . . . . . I didn't so hot . . . . 18/30 but it was fun.

Just 23, and missed every date. I think one question was wrong. General Lee's desire to engage the North was the motivation for Gettysburg, but the general information given at Gettysburg historical site, and most historians was that the folks sent to check out shoes in the city engaged the North and this caused the battle to be fought there, when Lee reluctantly was stuck.
