The test will cover from the election of 1860 (who ran, what were their positions, what were the results?) to the assassination of President Lincoln in 1865 (by whom, how, why, where, and with what effect?)
General topics on the test will include the strategies and goals of both the USA and the CSA; their capitals, strengths, and weaknesses. Battles covered will include Fort Sumter, First Battle of Bull Run/Manassas, Shiloh/Pittsburg Landing, Antietam/Sharpsburg, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Sherman's March to the Sea, and the close of the war at Appomattox.
People covered on the test include President Lincoln, President Davis, General Grant, General McClellan, General Lee, General "Stonewall" Jackson, and General Sherman.
Students will be allowed to have one side of a piece of paper (written, not typed) for notes. The test will be this Friday.
