This is not Pickett's charge. I forget what it is called, but this battle happens before Pickett even arrives, and this charge is led by the North (by Chamberlain). Unlike Pickett's Charge, this charge is very successful.
“To study history is to study the motives, the opinions, and the passions of men in order to know all the successes, the initiatives and the detours, and finally all the illusions that they make known to the mind and the surprises that they make the heart feel. In a word, it is to learn to known oneself in others.”—Jean Mabillon, 15th c. Benedictine scholar.
