Event description:
Join us as we welcome Garry Adelman for a lively and multi-dimensional Gettysburg Civil War photography extravaganza. The Civil War was the first war to be extensively photographed and, for the first time in history, the public was exposed to real-life images of the gruesome toll of battle. Through then-and-now photographs, as well as 3-D (and even 4-D) techniques, Mr. Adelman will tell the story of the Civil War via the intensive and revolutionary wet-plate photography process and the truly unique individuals involved in the birth of photojournalism. Learn how early photographs were made, used, distributed and, thus, how they changed our understanding of the American Civil War. The latest photo-related discoveries and scholarship will be covered.
Gettysburg National Military Park is located in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and is covered frequently by the Gettysburg Daily, with stories related to the Gettysburg Campaign and the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863.
The Battle of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
The Battle of Gettysburg was fought July 1–3, 1863, in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, by Federal and Confederate forces during the American Civil War. The battle involved the largest number of casualties of the entire war and is often described as the war's turning point. Federal Major General George Meade's Army of the Potomac defeated attacks by Confederate General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, ending Lee's attempt to invade the North.
The States in the Civil War: Pennsylvania
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania had a great impact on the Civil War. It gave the most men to the Union Army, second only by a couple thousand by New York, the bloodiest and biggest battle in North America, the Battle of Gettysburg, was fought there, and the state provided many fine and brave generals to the Union Army (in fact, it even provided one general, John Pemberton, to the Confederate Army.)
If you would like to have your state featured in a video documenting its contributions to the Civil War, send me a message about it.
American History: July 1-3 1863 The Battle of Gettysburg | PENNSYLVANIA
The Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, is considered the most important engagement of the American Civil War. After a great victory over Union forces at Chancellorsville, General Robert E. Lee marched his Army of Northern Virginia into Pennsylvania in late June 1863. On July 1, the advancing Confederates clashed with the Union’s Army of the Potomac, commanded by General George G. Meade, at the crossroads town of Gettysburg. The next day saw even heavier fighting, as the Confederates attacked the Federals on both left and right. On July 3, Lee ordered an attack by fewer than 15,000 troops on the enemy’s center at Cemetery Ridge. The assault, known as “Pickett’s Charge,” managed to pierce the Union lines but eventually failed, at the cost of thousands of rebel casualties, and Lee was forced to withdraw his battered army toward Virginia on July 4.

The U.S. Christian Commission
I learned about the U.S. Christian Commission during a recent visit to Gettysburg. This is an important organization that is little known and needs to be told about. The United States Christian Commission brings to life the greatest untold stories of the American civil war. Stories of courage, duty and selfless devotion to a cause greater than the blue or the gray. These heroes served on the battlefields without rifle or bayonet, but with bibles, bandages and the love of Christ.Based in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania at the Jennie Wade birthplace, the present day USCC is dedicated to telling the stories of those who served their country and Lord, offering a message of peace to the heart.

A Great Gift with a long History - Woolrich Woolen Mills
Link:
“American Success Story” is the title of this American tale. In 1830, an immigrant from England named John Rich built his first woolen mill in rural central Pennsylvania and sold his goods from a mule cart. Eight generations later, Woolrich Woolen Mills is the oldest continually operating woolen mill in the United States, and the Woolrich™ brand is recognized—and revered-- around the world.
Woolrich Woolen Mills is also an American history story:
• 1861- 1865: Woolrich supplies blankets for soldiers
during the Civil War.
• 1880: Woolrich begins to produce outdoor clothing for recreational activities enjoyed by an emerging leisure class.
• 1890: Woolrich produces a multi-pocket vest for railroad men to hold watches, tickets and other paraphernalia.
• 1914- 1917: Woolrich supplies blankets for soldiers
during World War I.
• 1939: Woolrich produces wool clothing for three expeditions in the Antarctic, led by of Admiral Byrd.
• 1942: Woolrich produces blankets for soldiers during
World War II.
• 1972- 1975: Woolrich produces a parka for Arctic pipeline workers.
Woolrich Woolen Mills Today
On a recent factory tour of Woolrich Woolen Mills in the small village of Woolrich, Pa., I saw the step-by-step process of raw wool turning into handsome finished fabric.
After the tour and an interview with the mill director, I made a beeline to the company store, which is within
walking distance from the mill.
And what a company store! Chock-full of “everything Woolrich™” from floor to ceiling. Literally. A canoe fabricated with the Buffalo Check plaid hangs from the ceiling just beyond the entrance.
My favorite items in the company store were the woolen blankets, shirts and jackets, chamois shirts, and the iconic Buffalo Check Plaid shirts and caps.
Take a good look at the Woolrich™ website. If you’re not already a fan of this iconic American company, chances are very good that you’ll become one.
Gettysburg National Park - Gettysburg, PA
I'm at Gettysburg National Park and I've learned a whole lot about America's Civil War while I was here. That war was national tragedy and what I find most disturbing is that we're still dealing with the issue of racism in America today. Hopefully you'll enjoy my visit and it will remind you of why anyone who makes the United States their home for whatever reason, should expect to have the same rights and freedoms that their neighbors have, regardless of the color of their skin, the origin of their family or their chosen faith.
See you soon!

Gettysburg: History and Hype
It is conventional to depict Gettysburg as a decisive Union victory, the turning point in our Civil War. But that conflict dragged on for nearly two years after Gettysburg, and the fierce resistance mounted by Confederate armies in Virginia and Georgia in the spring and summer of 1864 almost caused a war-weary Northern public to lose its will to continue fighting and turn Abraham Lincoln out of the White House. This lecture compares this battle with other truly decisive Union victories, and considers our distorted view of what the Civil War was really like—which blinds us to the kind of nation that the war produced. Dr. Gregory J.W. Urwin, Department of History, Temple University, speaks at this Great Battles: Moments in Time that Changed History series lecture program.
Culp's Hill - Ranger Jim Flook
For much of the three days of the battle of Gettysburg, the right flank of the Army of the Potomac rested near the wooded slopes of Culp's Hill. Though not as famous as Little Round Top, the Wheatfield, or Pickett's Charge, the fighting on Culp's Hill was the most sustained of the entire battle. Join Ranger Jim Flook and explore this often overlooked battlefield location.
