About this listen

In July 1863, the quiet town of Gettysburg became the site of one of the most decisive clashes of the American Civil War. Over three intense days, Union and Confederate forces fought across fields, hills and ridges in a battle that helped shape the future of the United States.


To tell us this story, we're joined by Jonathan Bratten, a historian and serving Major in the Maine National Guard.


Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.
