Battle of Gettysburg

On July 1, 1863, fighting erupted between the Union and Confederate Armies west of Gettysburg.  By afternoon, the strife reached the back door of the Seminary building.  Who were the men who clashed on these fields?  What brought them to make war on each other at Gettysburg and beyond?  Lessons explore these questions and provide students with a deeper perspective on the soldier experience.
