CSPAN Appearance

Boritt's recent appearance on CSPAN's After Words has been released by Book-TV as a free MP3 on their webpage. The MP3 is available here.

More National Media

December's issue of North & South Magazine featured an article by Boritt. New Birth: Gettysburg describes the transformation of the town from barely scraping by to being able to host a national dedication ceremony.


In a different vein, Preservation Magazine recently ran a feature on Gabor and Liz' beautiful, historic Gettysburg home, and the namesake of this blog. The article on The Farm by the Ford ran in the November/December issue of the magazine.


Critics have been praising the Gettysburg Gospel in many national media outlets, and so we leave you today with three such reviews. The first comes from American Heritage Magazine, a review by Harold Holzer, American Scholar and Co-chair of the Lincoln Bicentennial. The others come from The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Don't forget, Boritt on CSPAN this weekend. Check the previous post for more details.
