It was the largest battle of the Civil War. Some say the decisive event of this great conflict. More than 175,000 men fought for three days and left behind more than 50,000 casualties. Four months later it was the scene of Abraham Lincoln's famous Gettysburg Address at the dedication of the national cemetery. Today, Gettysburg is a small Pennsylvania town adjacent to a huge national park. More than 1.5 million people visit annually. Visit our Gettysburg store. |
