GNMP Winter Lecture Series- February 6, 2022 - From Chaos to Solemnity Emerging Myths and Misconceptions from the Aftermath of Battle- by Barbara Sanders
Brrrrr....It's so COLD outside these days. Right? I mean, what, is it Winter or somethin'? You stay in the warmth of your hearth and home and let Addressing Gettysburg bring Gettysburg to you as you save your energy and pennies for your trip to Gettysburg during the months that are conducive to human beings being outdoors. And while you do that, siphon some of those pennies to help support those who are willing to freeze in order to go and record these lectures.

Barbara Sanders, Gettysburg National Military Park Were Civil War doctors operating as in the Dark Ages? Were the 2,400 Gettysburg civilians left alone to care for the 51,000 battle casualties? Did Lincoln really write the Gettysburg Address on the back of an envelope during the train ride to town? Even after the guns fell silent, Gettysburg was the scene of great chaos, hardship, and sacrifice. But lingering within the mists of this increasingly reverential landscape were several unknowns, some half-truths, and outright falsities. This lecture will explore the myths surrounding Gettysburg, from the immediate aftermath of battle to the dedication ceremony on November 19th and up to repeated myths by some of today's visitors.
