Why was it important that the union held onto the high ground in gettysburg?
Holding the high ground usually give the tactical advantage to the force which holds the heights. It means the defender has a vantage point from which to see the enemy approaching and can prepare for action. The enemy has to advance in the clear and attack uphill, giving the defender the choice of when and where to concentrate fire. The defender can shift forces and resupply along interior lines without exposing themselves to the enemy and possibly disguise their numbers to bring about an unexpected, overwhelming force at the point of the enemy attack. In a well defended position, a small number of defenders can sometimes successfully hold out against a numerically superior force.
