Hop in the car and join the American Battlefield Trust's very own Garry Adelman for this full tour of the Gettysburg National Military Park. The video highlights the same route that visitors experience when trekking the battlefield, and includes walking stops at the iconic sites of Confederate Avenue, Little Round Top and Cemetery Ridge. There is no replacement for being able to see America's Hallowed Grounds in person, but we hope this serves as a worthy option for the virtual experience. #gettysburgdrivingtour

Gettysburg also changed the approach of battle tactics I'm the U.S. Army. The confederate army was still using British Revolutionary War procedures with standing in rows on the face of fire. And Picketts Charge may have been the bravest attack in the history of US battles. It certainly was deadliest, 6000 soldiers killed. The Army after the war adopted Indian tactics while fighting in the West.

Years ago, my wife hired a guide at Gettysburg for us as my birthday present. It was one of the best presents I ever received. When we stopped people would gather around to hear our discussion about each stop. It was a discussion and not just a lecture and for the short time he seemed part of our family. A guide is definitely a great investment and can make the battle and battlefield come alive for you!

To have have the flash of lightening and the bang of the thunder was so eerie...brought him back to Italy and his bond to soldiers of another generation. Love you dad and what your generation sacrificed for this country.

The date I was there? JULY 2. What a magnificent and humbling place. My our union always be strong. And free.

I was there and took my tour in the summer of 2019, on the 4th of July no less! There is nothing like having the tangible reminders that our freedoms and nation were fought for by men who literally gave "the last full measure" to ensure that future generations would be able to live in the greatest nation on earth. It is beyond visceral when you are actually there and realize that the ground you are walking upon was once soaked with the blood of soldiers who stared death in the face and were not deterred from their duty. For many of this current generation, their gratitude is oblivious because the teaching of our history is being eviscerated by those who hate this country and they have zero concept of selfless sacrifice. This veteran salutes those who died for the Union and am proud to count myself as having lineage in their tradition.

Another reason this current generation has no sense of patriotism is because they're the first generation to NOT have a parent or grandparent fight in a major war. That makes a big difference. My dad was a Vietnam veteran and he gave me his love of country. Young ppl today think it's "cool' to say how horrible America is. They have no idea the amount of freedom they have compared to other countries. They would last about 5 min in Iraq or Afghanistan. Our Constitution is a beautiful thing. It's the Leftists who spread "self hate" as an idealogy. Especially among young white ppl. I'm NOT white and even I see it. But there are still plenty of ppl here who love the country. The media gives the vocal minority the most attention unfortunately. You're right, Gettysburg has a very tangible feeling in the atmosphere. It's hard to describe.

I would have loved to watch it with him, and ask him questions about it. Thank you for this video.

I work two jobs 7 days a week 365 days a year. I HAVE to make it here one day. When i was young i remember my grandfather always coming here every year and telling me about it and the civil war. its a shame it wasnt until after he passed away i became totally immersed in the subject. Heres to you, old man. One day I will make it to Gettysburg, no doubt your favorite little corner of our beautiful country.

I used to drive to PA from MI for my old job. They set me up in Gettysburg every time I went, which was often. PA became my second home, and seeing all the history was so fascinating! I never got tired of traveling there, there's so much to see! It's worth the travel time.

Garry, I have been a fan of yours since the first Battlefield talk I saw you do at Devils Den in July 2001. I am a devoted Gettys-nerd and have made several trips to the Park, including the 150th and 155th anniversaries. I've bought your books. Because of guys like you and Tim Smith and others, I am a contributing member of The ABT. I've seen so many of your KZbin videos over the last several years. But this one is a masterpiece! Thank you so much for all you do to preserve and shine the spotlight on Civil War History and battlefields. Bravo!

Hello Garry! Thank you for the energetic and fascinating descriptions of the Gettysburg Battlefields. My family and I visited Gettysburg. Your presentation increased our knowledge and enjoyment immensely. Unfortunately, there were no tour guides available. Your tour filled the gap. Thank you so much for your interest and enthusiasm in this piece of American history.

I went to the visitors center and booked a guide that drove my car and took me through the town and different days. I highly recommended you do this (book ahead if possible.) It was an experience I’ll never forget and a great way to explore the battlefield and have any question you could imagine answered. An absolute must for civil war buffs!!!
