Sheridan's Counterattack at Winchester Moves the Valley
Sheridan's forces clash near Winchester in the 1864 Shenandoah Valley campaign. The fight follows Jubl A Early's lines as Union cavalry under Crook and infantry press the Confederate left, Upton leads a bold assault, Gordon's men retaliate, and Russell is killed while turning the tide. The Union victory forces Early to withdraw toward Cedar Creek with heavy losses on both sides.
