The battle of Gettysburg was fought during the first three days of July in 1863. There were 51,000 casualties. Next year will be the 150th anniversary. It is a profoundly moving experience to visit there. You can imagine the battle raging, and the statues seem to be alive, especially if you go early in the morning. — Paul Goldfinger
