Few moments in the Civil War are as tightly tied to a single place and day as this one: Abraham Lincoln's brief address at the dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, on November 19, 1863. The ceremony honored the Union dead from the battle fought there four months earlier, and the speech that followed, delivered in roughly two minutes, would come to be regarded as one of the defining statements of the war's purpose. Gettysburg's streets and fields were still scarred by the fighting, and the crowd gathered that afternoon included national figures and local families alike. The photograph records that occasion, a reminder of how a small town's ground became national memory within months.
