Haunted Gettysburg: Paranormal Tales from the Field of Battle - Barry Corbett

Descriere Haunted Gettysburg: Paranormal Tales from the Field of Battle - Barry Corbett

A haunting exploration of the Battle of Gettysburg and the restless spirits of young soldiers left behind on its blood-soaked fields. \n \nFifty thousand soldiers died at Gettysburg, the largest and most horrific battle of the Civil War. Many of those combatants were teenagers, some no more than twelve years of age, torn from their homes amidst the turmoil of rebellion and swept along by events beyond their control, suffering devastating wounds, torturous conditions, and dying by the thousands. \n \nThese men long to have their stories heard, to know they are not forgotten, a mere footnote in the larger tale of America's internal war. And they can be heard, calling out in the silvery moonlight of Devil's Den, crying out in pain and terror at Kuhn's Brickyard, and whispering ghostly messages to frightened travelers at historic taverns. \n \nThere are seminal events that defy description, some so brutally violent and tragic that they infuse the very land with the trauma of their experience. The Battle of Gettysburg is one such milestone, a struggle for the soul of young America and a turning point in history. \n \nSomething has been left behind, the ghostly spirits of forgotten warriors, condemned to battle for eternity.
