Days of darkness. The Gettysburg civilians
Description
They never expected the war to come to their town, but when it did, the residents of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania became heroes. Some townsment, including seventy-year-old John Burns, joined the fight, while others struggled to help the thousands of soldiers wounded during the three day battle. In aftermath, 50,000 lay dead, and the once quiet lives of the citizens of Gettyburg would never be the same.
