Gettysburg: This Hallowed Ground

Gettysburg is a paradox: Today it is beautiful, still, and filled with visitors, yet this national military park serves as a powerful reminder of the clash of armies and the great loss of life that took place here nearly 150 years ago. Gettysburg, This Hallowed Ground explores this Civil War battleground through contemporary photographs by National Merit Award-winning photographer Chris Heisey and poems by noted Civil War author Kent Gramm. A brief snopsis of the Battle of Gettysburg and a map of the battlefield introduce the book. Gettysburg, That Hallowed Ground is a tribute to the soliders who gave their lives here and to the military park that is a lasting reminder of our country's most devastating battle.
