FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message
Join us as we journey back in time to honor the 160th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, a turning point in our nation's history.
In todays Special Liberty Minute 🗽, we continue with our 160th anniversary commemoration with the final part, Part 3.
Our guide today will include Stephen Sears and his wonderful one volume book on Gettysburg plus, we have a unique book we will be reading from, Pickett's Charge At Gettysburg:Â A guide to the most famous attack in American History by James Kessler and Wayne Motts.Â
Again, this series is a tribute to our dear friend and listener, Ed Gallagher, whose love for history inspired us to delve deep into the heart of the battle at Gettysburg's rich past.
Key Points from the Episode:
- We’re peeling back the layers of history, taking you through an in-depth journey into the rigorous process of becoming a battlefield guide at Gettysburg, a role steeped in tradition and a profound understanding of the broader scope of the battle beyond the strategies and tactics. You'll gain insight into the five tiers of the licensing process, shedding light on the decades of research, the human element, and the political, social, and economic perspectives tied to this era.
- We’ve brought along two seasoned battlefield guides, Wayne Motts and James Hessler, to add color and depth to this unique journey. They’ll help us dissect the infamous attack of Pickett's division on the third day of the Gettysburg battle. With their expertise, we'll scrutinize the events leading up to General Lee's decision to order the assault and unearth the stories of bravery and sacrifice that define this historical event.
- Our tribute wouldn't be complete without honoring those who fought and died at Gettysburg. We're looking beyond the battle lines to the stories of courage and commitment that shaped this event. From Louis B Williams’ gallantry to Colonel Norman Hall's heroic efforts, these tales of bravery remind us of the cost of liberty.Â
- We wind down by reflecting on the words of Abraham Lincoln's famous Gettysburg Address, reminding us of the importance of remembering and honoring the legacy of those who fought for freedom. So tune in, and let’s journey together through the Battle of Gettysburg.
