Opis

Gettysburg has certain place in American history. A history woven through the threads of time. Some threads, stained with the blood of great struggles, certainly shine more intensely than others, such is Gettysburg. As one follows those threads of time they expose certain ironies, ironies which perhaps lead us to a greater understanding of the ture nature of history and the lessons it whispers to us across time. Here, at Gettysburg, where two great American armies will meet to finally come to grips with the great growing pains which had plagued America for the first eighty years of its existence we find the roots of the first offical troops to be raised to fight to bring that nation into existence. Here, at a small crossroads tavern in southern Pennsylvania, men will rise and answer the call which in turn will form the beginnings of the great American armies which will find themselves engaged in the greatest struggle in American history. Come read of their story. Come read of this place which still haunts the American heart and soul. This Gettysburg.
