Mr. Lincoln's November 1863 Trip to Gettysburg
Bus Tour |
| |
Invited to make a few remarks at the dedication of the Soldiers National Cemetery, President Lincoln traveled to Gettysburg on Nov. 18, 1863. Although he spent less than 24 hours in Gettysburg, this turned out to be one of the most important trips he would make. In that short time he gave his historic speech, the Gettysburg Address, consisting of fewer than 280 words and delivered in a little over 2 minutes. This full-day program with Civil War historian Ed Bearss during the bicentennial year of Lincoln's birth lets you walk in the footsteps of the Great Emancipator during his hours in Gettysburg. Lunch is included.
