"On November 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln made a short speech at the dedication of the Gettysburg National Cemetery in Pennsylvania. These 272 words are now regarded as one of the finest American speeches - a speech that poet Carl Sandburg called "the great American poem." It is reproduced line by line throughout the pages of this wonderful book that captures the great emotion that surrounds the Civil War. Here you will read first-hand accounts of John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry, the original Emancipation Proclamation, writings on slavery, quotes about both the Union and Confederate generals, and descriptions of the devastation of a war that Lincoln claimed "is killing me." And extraordinary archival photographs bring this extraordinary time vividly to life. The centerpiece of the book is a day-by-day account of the Battle of Gettysburg, with contemporary photographs, woodcuts, poetry, letters written by soldiers, and observations from the Gettysburg residents themselves. The Illustrated Gettysburg Address is a powerful journey through one of the most memorable periods of American history." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Ocker, Karen (jacket design) (illustrator).
