The printed text page is the one the public has always been able to read: the words Abraham Lincoln spoke at the dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, on November 19, 1863. Lincoln's remarks ran only a few minutes, far shorter than the two-hour oration given by Edward Everett that day, yet they came to define the meaning of the battle and the nation's purpose in fighting it. Copies of the speech were printed and circulated in the weeks afterward, and they remain some of the most studied words in American history. Looking at the page itself, a reader sees how quickly a short address could travel from a single platform to newspapers and households across the country.
