Informazioni sul libro
"To Save A National Treasure" provides a historical record and an eye-opening account of saving the most important Civil War building in America still in private hands. As no other site can do, the old, original seminary at Gettysburg, restored and repurposed as a modern museum, tells the story of the first day of battle outside its walls, the race to save lives inside as it became one of the largest battlefield hospitals at Gettysburg, and the role of religion in antebellum and Civil War America. The story of raising $18 million dollars to rehabilitate and refurbish this national heirloom is both amazing and instructive.
