A main source. Mostly an old book that thoroughly describes the battle. First hand accounts also work, ad there are many of therm. General Lee's journal is a good source, where he talks about the battle.
A secondary source could be an encyclopedia or a third-party book/source where the author talks about the Battle and what happened during those three days...

A good search on the internet will yield you good results.
