Publisher’s Summary
The Battle of Gettysburg - the turning point of the American Civil War - would, in the words of one staff officer, stand “like Waterloo, conspicuous in the history of all ages.” In this stirring production, adapted from the New York Times’ award-winning online journal and Audible audiobook Disunion, we revisit the meaning and importance of the battle that forever changed US history. Timed to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the battle which took place over several days starting July 1st, 1863, Why Gettysburg Mattered concludes with an inspiring performance of Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address.
