Use the left and right arrow keys to move the slider. Mouse over an event to see what it is, and click for more info. To close that window click again (With one or two the "more info" is actually just the same information in a complete sentence.)
Events are taken from the two "Milestones in the Civil War" Packets. Blue markers are Union victories, Red are Confederate. (Some aren't necessarily battles, but if it resulted in casualties it is probably one of those two icons.) Not quite perfected- there was probably an easier way to do this. This was a timeline for my US History class. I will be working on some of the details, like the fact that events don't show up except on certain points. Pre-Civil War events to come.
