What’s interesting to me is how much new pertaining to Gettysburg has been learned by Historians in my own lifetime.

I’m not a Historian I just read the books they wrote. It was prob’ly around 1973 when I found Bruce Catton’s famous trilogy in my high school library. My first serious immersion in the history of that war. I should read it again to see how current it is.
