 Gettysburg...I highly recommend
visiting this Park in person

Please read my comments below...

 You might also enjoy visiting
my pages on my Civil War Cavalry
reenacting...when I took these photos
I never would have dreamed that I
would one day be performing Cavalry
demonstrations on this very battlefield.
What an honor it was to ride my horse
along Pickett's charge and perform
in front of the PA Monument! This born
and raised PA girl felt very privileged indeed.

*** Please, these photos are my property and are very special to me...if you are interested in using any of these photos, Contact me first!

Thanks to Al Hurst who kindly identified 3 of these monuments for me.

For those for you who like music, there is an amazing album named "The Glorious Burden", released in January 2004 by a metal band called ICED EARTH. On this album is an incredible 32 minute epic song on the 3 day battle of Gettysburg! Taken from their official web site:

The album's centerpiece, however, is "Gettysburg (1863)", a three-part, 32-minute epic that tells the tale of the defining battle of the American Civil War. Backed up with a full orchestra and led by the vocals of new singer Tim Owens (ex-Judas Priest), the music portrays the tremendous power and emotion that must have been present when those two great armies clashed, with the fate of a nation hanging in the balance.

The album cover depicting the climax at Gettysburg:


History lovers and rock fans - get this album!
The Gettysburg epic song will blow your mind!
