We are very excited to do a feed swap with the History Daily podcast. In this upload you will hear two of their episodes: The Battle of Gettysburg Begins and The Gettysburg Address.

The Battle of Gettysburg Begins July 1, 1863. Confederate troops engage with Union troops outside of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, setting off one of the bloodiest and most important battles of the American Civil War.

The Gettysburg Address

November 19, 1863. In the midst of a bloody Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln delivers one of the most famous speeches in American History.

From History Daily:

"On History Daily, we do history, daily. Every weekday, host Lindsay Graham (American Scandal, American History Tellers) takes you back in time to explore a momentous event that happened 'on this day' in history.

Whether it's to remember the tragedy of December 7th, 1941, the day "that will live in infamy," or to celebrate that 20th day in July, 1969, when mankind reached the moon, History Daily is there to tell you the true stories of the people and events that shaped our world—one day at a time.

So if you're stuck in traffic, bored at work—wherever you are, listen to History Daily to remind yourself that something incredible happened to make that day historic.

A co-production from award-winning podcasters Airship and Noiser."

Join LBG Jessie Wheedleton as she takes us on a trip around the batteries positioned on the Union right at Gettysburg. From Powers' Hill to East Cemetery Hill, the heights on this portion of the Union line bristled with cannon.

But that's not true. Did you know there are fortifications around the city from the Civil War? There are. Did you know that Pittsburgh isn't so far from West Virginia, which was still Virginia for a good portion of the war? Well, Rich Condon from Civil War Pittsburgh sat down with me to let you in on this little secret. Rich Condon is a public historian based out of Pittsburgh, although he began his career as a battlefield guide in Franklin, Tennessee. For nine years he has worked with a multitude of sites and organizations, including The Battle of Franklin Trust, Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall and Museum, Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, and Flight 93 National Memorial. Rich is a contributing writer for the Pennsylvania in the Civil War blog, and director of Civil War Pittsburgh – an organization focused on education and preservation regarding Western Pennsylvania's role in the American Civil War.

"Being thus threatened from two directions, I determined to attack…" As July 1, 1863 gained in notoriety with each passing hour, one Confederate Division at the center of the action in the afternoon was that of Major General Robert Rodes. Join us as we examine the arrival and then deployment of this veteran Confederate Division as the fight General Robert E. Lee didn't want reached the point of no return.

Back by popular demand, historian and co-host of the History Things Podcast Matt Borders, joins us to talk about the history of the Army of the Potomac. This episode covers the year 1861.

For those of us who have had our heads buried in books about the Battle of Gettysburg, we might find ourselves surprised at how different the organization of the AoP was. It helps us better understand how the army seemed to pull itself together just in time for Gettysburg, but like with anything, nothing happens over night.
