What is Gettysburg 1863: High Tide of the Confederacy (Praeger Illustrated Military History) about?

"The Confederate invasion of the Northern states in 1863 was General Lee's last great gamble. By taking the war to the Union he hoped to force Lincoln into peace negotiations, or win support from the European powers who were following the events with interest from across the Atlantic. Equally, the Army of the Potomac needed to regain its fighting credibility after the setbacks of Fredericksburg, and General Meade saw this as an opportunity to redeem his army's honor. The clash of 150,000 soldiers at Gettysburg would ultimately decide the fate of the nation."--Jacket
