Seite 1
Blick von
der Cemetery Ridge auf Gettysburg: Die Straße nach Philadelphia.
Dahinter die Seminary Ridge. In Gettysburg, 1780 nördlich der
Mason-Dixon-Linie gegründet und zu Ehren General James Gettys
benannt,
entscheidet der Norden die erste echte Kraftprobe der Kriegsindustrien
und des Nachschubs für sich.
Meades Gettysburger
Hauptquartier
Generalmajor
George G. Meade hatte das Kommando über seine Armee erst einige
Tage inne,
als er schon in die größte Schlacht des Krieges verwickelt
wurde.
Man sieht ihn hier in der Mitte, umgeben von seinem Stab.
