If you ever get the chance to read Bevin Alexander's book "How the South Could have Won The Civil War" he explains where and why they failed.

LOL well I have been running dory races between Gloucester MA and Lunenburg, Nova Scotia all day and have given the Civil War no thought at all.
Longstreet should have put more effort into taking Little Round Top. If he could have dislodged Chamberlain and the 20th Maine from there and gotten some guns up there, he could have swept the whole Union line with shot.

Imagine letting a bunch of lobstermen from Downeast Maine with a few bayonets stop your whole army !
