Lee's attempt to invade Pennsylvania and reach Washington D.C. It was fought between July 1st and 3rd, 1863, and took 20,451 Confederate and 23,003 Union lives. It is arguably the most famous battle in American history and the literature of the battle is enormous. General histories of the Civil Wars devote many pages to the analysis of its strategies and outcome, and many single volumes describe each maneuver, however small, in great detail. Although such works are invaluable to the historian and student of the battle, they are not helpful to the average visitor to the battlefield who wants a description of the battle in general terms, a selections of the most dramatic incidents, and an account of the extensice cemetary and park.  0aGettysburg, Battle of, Gettysburg, Pa., 186396517 0aGettysburg National Military Park (Pa.)9651808iOnline version:aStorrick, W.C.
