"Over the course of a few days, Chris led a group of men through the battlefields at Gettysburg. It was anything but your standard Gettysburg tour however, in that we walked the infamous battlefield giving all of us a first hand understanding of the typography that the soldiers encountered during the battle. With each footstep we walked, Chris would share stories and accounts from letters that soldiers had written, to help us better understand what the soldiers of both the North and South were feeling and thinking during and after the battle."
