My Gettysburg Address
This year, we are celebrating the 155th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address. On Nov. 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln delivered 272 words that not only helped dedicate Gettysburg’s Soldiers’ National Cemetery, his words gave a sense of hope and re-unification to a town, and nation, that had been raged by war. His words, 155 years later, still resonate.
